Cushenberry Steps In for Bills | Buffalo Bills News

When Josh Allen took the field for Buffalo’s preseason opener, he didn’t have his usual center snapping the ball—veteran Lloyd Cushenberry stepped in and delivered a standout performance. Over 15 snaps across two drives, Cushenberry helped the Bills move the ball efficiently, gaining over 100 yards and eight first downs, culminating in both drives ending in scores. Allen praised Cushenberry’s composure and reliability, calling him “awesome” and “extremely comfortable” with him under center. The move came after starting center Connor McGovern suffered a lower-body injury—likely a hamstring strain—that could sideline him for weeks, with his return possibly targeted for the Sept. 13 opener against the Texans. Cushenberry, who previously started for the Titans and has extensive experience overcoming injuries, proved he’s more than ready to hold down the middle for the Bills.
