In today’s edition of the Buffalo Bills daily links, we share the latest news from training camp, recapping Monday’s session, including the return to practice of quarterback Josh Allen and defensive tackles Vernon Butler, Quinton Jefferson and Harrison Phillips one day after they each missed practice due to false-positive COVID-19 test results.
