Pivotal year for MLB Tremaine Edmunds
When middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds entered the NFL after being selected by the Bills with the No. 16 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft, he was the youngest player in the league and the future appeared bright for the physically gifted Edmunds.

Still just 24 years old, read why Edmunds is entering a make-or-break year, and why the Bills face a crucial decision regarding Edmunds’ future: sign him to a significant contract extension or let him walk in free agency and risk him latching on with another team.
