Buffalo’s two biggest additions — wide receiver D.J. Moore and outside linebacker Bradley Chubb — were both their teams’ nominees for the 2025 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award, the league’s most prestigious honor for community service. Moore represented the Chicago Bears and Chubb the Miami Dolphins.
Add in Bills tackle Dion Dawkins, who has represented Buffalo the past four seasons, and the Bills now have three of the league’s 32 nominees from last year.
