Bills' Tanner Gentry: Elevated from practice squad again
The Bills elevated Gentry from their practice squad Wednesday ahead of their Thanksgiving game against Detroit.
This is Gentry's third elevation of the season, as he was also active in Weeks 5 and 11. He's played 18 offensive snaps over two contests and has drawn only one target, which he did not catch. Barring injuries ahead of him, Gentry is unlikely to play a significant role Thursday against the Lions.

Bills' Tanner Gentry: Elevated to active roster
Buffalo elevated Gentry from its practice squad Saturday for Sunday's matchup against Cleveland.

Gentry reverted to the Bills' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Gentry was activated from Buffalo's practice squad for the first time this season with wideouts Jake Kumerow (ankle) and Jamison Crowder (ankle) both out Sunday. The 27-year-old played just 11 offensive snaps and failed to record a catch on his lone target during this 38-3 blowout win over Pittsburgh.

Bills' Tanner Gentry: Elevated for Week 5
The Bills elevated Gentry on Saturday from their practice squad to their active roster for Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.
With Jake Kumerow and Jamison Crowder sidelined due to ankle injuries, Gentry will get his first opportunity on the Bills' active roster. The 27-year-old wideout hasn't appeared in an NFL game since he caught three of six targets for 35 yards across four games with the Bears in 2017.

The Bills re-signed Gentry to the practice squad Wednesday.
Gentry will join the Bills' practice squad for the second time since being waived as part of the team's final 53-man roster cuts in late August. The 2017 undrafted free agent spent most of last season on Buffalo's practice squad after joining the team on a reserve/future contract following the 2020 season, though he has not played in an NFL game since his rookie season with the Bears.

Per Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News, Gentry was looked at by trainers on the sideline, but the extent of the issue remains unclear. The 27-year-old wideout hasn't seen game action in the regular season since 2017 and spent the 2021 campaign on Buffalo's practice squad after failing to make the team's season-opening roster.

Tanner Gentry: Time up with Bills
Buffalo cut Gentry on Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Gentry linked with Buffalo's practice squad during the playoffs last season, and he managed to stick with the team via a reserve/future contract, but he couldn't secure a regular-season roster spot for 2021. However, he will be a candidate to sign with the practice squad again as long as he clears waivers.

Bills' Tanner Gentry: Signs reserve/future contract
Gentry signed a reserve/future contract with the Bills on Tuesday.
Gentry, a teammate of Josh Allen at Wyoming, was brought into Buffalo ahead of its wild-card matchup, as the Bills were dealing with several injuries on the wide receiver front. Gentry will now get the opportunity to stick with the team through offseason activities in hopes of landing a roster spot in 2021.

Tanner Gentry: Links up with playoff contender
Gentry was signed to Buffalo's practice squad Monday, Dante Lasting of the Bills' official site reports.
The high-flying Bills rely heavily on numerous wide receivers, so they're loading up on reserves heading into the playoffs and with Cole Beasley working through a knee issue. However, even though Gentry was a teammate of Josh Allen at Wyoming, the Bills signed Kenny Stills to the practice squad as well, and it would seem far more likely Stills would get the call if the team needs more help in the playoffs.

Bears' Tanner Gentry: Catches three passes
Gentry caught three passes for 31 yards in the Bears' preseason loss to the Giants on Friday.
After shining in the 2018 preseason, Gentry followed up his zero-catch performance of last week with an efficient but unspectacular follow-up effort. He's currently buried on the depth chart, and it appears that he faces long odds of cracking the 53-man roster.
