The Buffalo Bills Trimmed Roster to 53, Trade Seymour to Panthers for Clay

The Buffalo Bills traded CB Kevon Seymour and a 2019 seventh round pick to the Carolina Panthers for WR and return specialist Kaelin Clay.

The team then made several moves, including injury settlements with a couple players and removed 30 players off their roster by 4 pm Saturday September 2nd to reach the 53 man roster limit.

The two players moved off the roster via injury settlements with the Bills were WR Rod Streater and safety Shamiel Gary. 

LB Sam Barrington was placed on injured reserve outright effectively ending his 2017 season.

Buffalo placed WR Walt Powell and OT Seantrel Henderson on the reserve/suspended list. Powell has to serve a four-game league-imposed suspension. Henderson has to serve five remaining games on a 10-game suspension handed down by the league last year.
