This could get tricky in Buffalo.
Bills' Tyrell Shavers just forced Buffalo into a tough decision on WR depth chart potentially involving Elijah Moore originally appeared on The Sporting News
The Buffalo Bills have some decisions to make.
Some of the biggest may come on their wide receiver depth chart, where Tyrell Shavers has made a case that he belongs among the 53-man roster WRs.
His final exclamation point on a strong summer came Saturday night against the Buccaneers, when he reeled in a ridiculous one-handed catch on a pass from Shane Buchele.
Check it out:
The Bills won’t be able to ‘sneak’ Tyrell Shavers on the practice squad after tonight.

As Fetes writes there, if other teams didn't know about Shavers before Saturday, they do now.
He spent his college career at three stops: Alabama, Mississippi State and San Diego State.
A season ago, he caught one pass for the Bills. It was a 69-yard touchdown.
It didn't seem like Buffalo necessarily had a lot of WR suspense entering the summer.
But Khalil Shakir is still out injured. Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer should be safe, and it seems Curtis Samuel is safe, too.

Elijah Moore has been the name mentioned in speculation as a cut candidate after just joining from the Browns this offseason. He didn't have a great preseason, but it'd be a surprise to see him cut so quickly.
If Shakir misses Week 1, it'll be a lot easier to keep Shavers. It also depends if the Bills have any interest in keeping veterans like KJ Hamler or Laviska Shenault (who would return kicks).
Shavers certainly made a compelling case in the preseason finale.
