The Bills signed Buechele to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
Buechele will stay in Buffalo after spending the entirety of the season on its practice squad. The 26-year-old will likely spend the summer competing for a backup role behind Josh Allen, though Kyle Allen is still in the mix at the present time.

Shane Buechele: Joins Buffalo's practice squad
Rotowire
Buechele was added to the Bills' practice squad Wednesday.
Buechele spent his first two seasons on the Chiefs' practice squad after going undrafted in 2021. He never actually suited up for a game during his stint in KC and will now look for a fresh start in Buffalo. He finished his five-year collegiate career with 11,660 yards and 87 touchdowns to go along with 478 rushing yards and eight touchdowns on the ground for both Texas and SMU.

Shane Buechele: Does not make cut
Rotowire
Buechele was waived by the Chiefs on Tuesday.
Blaine Gabbert was always the likely backup to Patrick Mahomes under center, so this is a relatively unsurprising move by the Chiefs. The 25-year-old has not suited up for an NFL game during his tenure in the league, but he did spend the majority of the 2021 season on Kansas City's practice squad. It remains to be seen if he will get another opportunity there.
