Buffalo Bills OT practicing at DT during OTAs
· Yahoo Sports
The Buffalo Bills have mostly gone about business quietly now into the third week of their 2026 Organized Team Activities program, however one key situation opened some eyes during Tuesday’s session. Offensive tackle Travis Clayton was seen working with the defensive line group.
Sal Capaccio, Bills reporter with WGR 550 shared a post showing Clayton working through drills, both in a group rotation and on his own. While it’s too soon to get deep into the woods of what this could mean for Clayton, it is a notable development as it relates to the team’s potential roster.

Clayton was selected by the Buffalo Bills with their final pick of the 2024 NFL Draft, entering the league and joining the team as part of the International Player Pathway (IPP) program. Now entering his third season with One Bills Drive, Clayton has spent time exclusively along the offensive line — and “stashed away” while developing his craft on Buffalo’s practice squad.
As part of the IPP program, Clayton remains eligible to land with the Bills’ practice squad as an extra player (now as the 17th player on a 16-man PS roster). A key difference now is that he’s eligible to be called up to the active roster in-season a maximum of three times.
Clayton, born in the United Kingdom, landed in the United States with a background in rugby, having previously played inside center for Basingstoke in London 3 South West. He carries enormous potential in his 6’7”, 301-pound (or perhaps larger now) frame. Clayton has been timed at 4.79 seconds in the 40-yard dash — which is faster than every o-line prospect to have attended the NFL Scouting Combine in the last decade.
Given his size and athletic ability, Clayton could be an ideal fit as a five-tech defensive tackle. It remains to be seen if this is just exploratory work as part of offseason practice, or if a position change is Clayton’s best path to making the transition from IPP prospect to contributor on the 53-man active roster. Either way, keep your eye on No. 67 throughout the summer!
Also noteworthy was the fact that defensive tackle Ed Oliver participated on Tuesday, as seen in Sal Capaccio’s video.
