  • Competition looms

    Croom, who had been the only tight end under contract for the Bills entering the start of the new league year, will now have competition for the starting job after the team signed Tyler Kroft on Wednesday.

    Analysis: The Bills are compensating Kroft handsomely, but he doesn't have the pedigree to simply run away with the competition. Though Kroft had a 42-404-7 season in 2017 surrounded by three other seasons with very limited production, his arrival is nonetheless a severe hit to Croom's 2019 value. The Bills still like Croom's upside, as he's still learning the position after playing wideout during his college days at Tennessee. At best, Croom will be allowed to compete for the starting job, and there's…read more

  • Status strengthened

    The Bills released Charles Clay on Friday, leaving Croom as the team's only tight end currently under contract.

    Analysis: Logan Thomas is a restricted free agent and could be brought back, while the Bills have a ton of cap room this offseason and a slew of draft picks to invest in tight end. While there will certainly be competition coming in, Croom -- who caught 22 balls on 35 targets for 259 yards and one touchdown in 2018 (15 games) -- is clearly going to get a chance to piggyback off a somewhat successful first pro season. While Croom has yet to wow, the upside is there as a former wide receiver still…read more

  • Part of the fray

    Croom finished the 2018 season with 22 catches on 35 targets for 259 yards and one touchdown in 15 games.

    Analysis: While that wasn't exactly setting the world on fire, Croom did top starter Charles Clay and fellow backup tight end Logan Thomas in catches, yards and touchdowns. Clay has a better chance of being let go versus sticking with the team for one more high-priced season, so more opportunity could open up for Croom. However, the Bills have tons of cap room and extra draft picks, so the odds are good they'll be bolstering the tight end position this offseason, perhaps as a high priority after years of…read more

  • Racks up 55 yards as starter

    Croom caught four of six targets for 55 yards and lost a fumble in Sunday's 24-12 loss to New England.

    Analysis: Croom was Buffalo's second-leading receiver behind Zay Jones, who benefited from a meaningless 31-yard touchdown with 1:08 remaining. Buffalo's new starting tight end is unlikely to gain much relevance at the position considering this is his first time exceeding 36 yards, but desperate deep-leaguers could do worse than Croom against the Dolphins in Week 17.

  • Listed as starter

    Croom is listed as the starting tight end Sunday against New England, as Charles Clay will be a healthy scratch for the matchup.

    Analysis: Croom will join Logan Thomas as the only active tight ends on the roster, which according to Joe Buscaglia of WKBW.com, had apparently been something in the works for some time. Neither is particularly encouraging from a fantasy perspective, however. Croom has the lone touchdown of the duo and more total receiving yards on the year, but the pair has surpassed 40 yards through the air in a single game just once this season (Thomas back in Week 9).

  • Full participant Wednesday

    Croom (groin) practiced in full Wednesday.

    Analysis: Croom was unable to practice at all and ultimately didn't play Week 14 against the Dolphins. Starting the week with a full practice is a good sign, though Croom's role in the offense is minimal and none of the Buffalo tight ends are fantasy worthy this season.

  • Not playing Week 14

    Croom (groin) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Listed as doubtful heading into the weekend after failing to practice this week, Croom's unavailability hardly comes as a surprise. With the Tennessee product sitting out, Logan Thomas checks in as the clear No. 2 tight end behind starter Charles Clay.

  • Not expected to play

    Croom (groin) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Jets.

    Analysis: Croom hasn't practiced in any capacity this week after failing to draw a target across 25 snaps in the Week 13 loss to the Dolphins. The Bills are left with Charles Clay and Logan Thomas as their only healthy tight ends.

  • Another missed practice

    Croom (groin) did not participate in practice for the second straight day Thursday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Croom got the nod over fellow backup tight end Logan Thomas (a healthy scratch) last week, so we imagine the team would just flip that scenario if Croom can't rally and practice Friday.

  • Misses practice Wednesday

    Croom (groin) won't practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Since the Bills' Week 11 bye, Croom has caught two passes for 16 yards off three targets. Fellow tight end Charles Clay missed two games due to a hamstring injury, but has since recovered and helped provide depth for the Bills at tight end. Croom's practice statuses throughout the week should paint a better picture of whether he'll be good to go Sunday.

  • Limited results as co-starter

    Croom caught two of three targets for 16 yards during Sunday's win over Jacksonville.

    Analysis: Charles Clay (hamstring) couldn't play in the contest, so Croom and Logan Thomas split the starting role almost right down the middle, with Croom seeing 29 offensive snaps to Thomas' 31 (no catches, one target). Clay seems ready to return in the next game or two, so the limited window Croom had to do anything noteworthy is about to pass.

  • In line for start Week 12

    Croom is listed as the projected starter at tight end in advance of the Week 12 matchup against Jacksonville.

    Analysis: With Charles Clay (hamstring) once again landing on the inactive list, it will be up to Croom and fellow tight end Logan Thomas to fill the void. This was the same situation in Week 10 against the Jets prior to the team's bye, and while Croom logged a season-high 44 offensive snaps, he was not targeted a single time in the passing game. While Croom should see steady time on the field, there are likely other waiver wire options with more pass-catching upside.

  • Second chance awaits

    Croom's teammate Charles Clay (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

    Analysis: That means Croom will likely share starter's time with Logan Thomas, though it's worth noting he didn't do much with the season-high 44 snaps when Clay missed the last game, as Croom wasn't even targeted. You can find a better option, but Croom does have a good set of hands so it'll be worth watching to see if the Bills involve him at least a little more in the passing game with rookie quarterback Josh Allen back at the helm this week.

  • Fails to make most of chance

    Croom was on the field for 60 percent of the offensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Jets but was not targeted in the passing game.

    Analysis: Croom's playing time went way up with Charles Clay shelved with a hamstring injury, but nothing much came of it even with the Bills having their biggest offensive day of the season. The Bills are taking a good look at many of their younger players in what's turned out to be a rebuilding season, so Croom will continue to have a small role even if Clay returns to action following the team's Week 11 bye. That role won't yield more than a few sprinkled catches, however.

  • Set for elevated role

    Croom and Logan Thomas will share tight end duties Sunday against the Jets with Charles Clay (hamstring) out of the lineup, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Clay's practice reps have been impacted from time to time this season, but the veteran TE still suited up in each of the Bills' first nine contests before his current bout with a hamstring injury. Before Clay was knocked from this past Sunday's loss to the Bears, Croom and Thomas earned regular snaps weekly, a number that increased to season-highs (42 and 47 on offense, respectively) in that contest. Croom himself caught three of five passes for 36 yards working with Nathan Peterman, so his…read more

  • Best yardage total of 2018

    Croom caught three of five targets for 36 yards during Sunday's loss to the Bears.

    Analysis: Croom ended up seeing the field for a career-high 42 offensive snaps, mostly due to a hamstring injury suffered by starter Charles Clay. Croom and Logan Thomas would be in store for an increased workload should Clay's injury carry over to this week's blockbuster showdown against the Jets, though almost no one in Buffalo's offense carries ownership worthiness right now. Croom does have a good set of hands, and his learning curve is worth tracking, considering the Bills seem likely to move on…read more

  • Suiting up Week 4

    Croom (knee) is listed as active Sunday against the Packers.

    Analysis: While Croom will be ready to play despite logging a few limited practices, fellow tight end Charles Clay (shoulder/hip) will also be healthy enough to suit up for the Week 4 matchup. Croom does have a catch in all three games this season, but his fantasy upside will always be limited with a relatively healthy Clay ahead of him on the depth chart.

  • Listed as questionable

    Croom (knee) is officially questionable for Sunday's game against the Packers.

    Analysis: Croom was added to the injury report with the knee issue this week and was a limited participant Thursday and Friday. The 24-year-old scored his first NFL touchdown last week and could see increased offensive snaps again Week 4, with starting tight end Charles Clay (shoulder/hip) also listed as questionable.

  • Limited Thursday

    Croom was listed as limited for Thursday's practice due to a knee issue, the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Assuming he can work through the issue, Croom -- who scored his first pro TD in Week 3 -- could have a decent Week 4 workload in store if starting tight end Charles Clay is limited or has to sit this week. Clay missed practice Thursday due to shoulder and hip issues.

  • First NFL score

    Croom was only targeted once Sunday but made it count as he reeled in a 26-yard touchdown pass from Josh Allen during Sunday's upset win over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Croom isn't going to be heavily targeted in the passing game just yet, but he's clearly passed Logan Thomas, who was made a healthy inactive Sunday. Croom could get more looks if starter Charles Clay continues to disappoint, though in reality he'd need an injury to Clay to see meaningful production.

  • Sees first NFL action

    Croom caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's loss to the Ravens.

    Analysis: Croom appears to be sharing No. 2 tight end duties with Logan Thomas behind Charles Clay, as both players saw the field for 18 offensive plays (28 percent) to Clay's 40 (62 percent). Clay has fought a balky knee among other issues for several seasons, so the situation between Croom and Thomas is worth watching in the event their senior teammate goes down for any length of time in 2018.

  • Makes final roster

    Croom is one of four tight ends kept by the Bills after the team cut Nick O'Leary and Keith Towbridge on Saturday.

    Analysis: It'll be Croom, Logan Thomas and Khari Lee left to work behind starter Charles Clay, while Croom looks like the best bet of the three to serve as the No. 2 to begin the season. Note that the former wide receiver displayed some pretty good hands while at Tennessee, where he worked with potential QB starter Nathan Peterman before the latter transferred to Pitt.

  • Productive preseason game

    Croom caught both of his targets for 38 yards -- including a 17-yard touchdown -- in Sunday's preseason loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Croom has been quietly working his way up the tight end depth chart all summer. At the very least he's the No. 3 tight end, and he's definitely staking claim to the No. 2 status held by Nick O'Leary, who didn't catch a pass Sunday.
