Buffalo Rumblings • • sports
Key Points:
- Tre'Quan Thompkins, a small but speedy wide receiver known for his quickness and advanced route-running skills, has joined the Buffalo Bills roster and participated in mandatory minicamp practice.
- Thompkins had a breakout senior year at Georgia Tech with 102 catches for 1,704 yards and 10 touchdowns, earning Third-Team All-American honors, but went undrafted in 2022 due to his diminutive size.
- He spent his rookie NFL season with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, earning playing time late in the year and contributing as a punt and kick returner, before later stints with the Carolina Panthers and Atlanta Falcons.
- Despite limited NFL production, Thompkins has demonstrated reliability with only one drop on 42 professional targets and has playoff experience, making him a notable practice squad and tryout player.
- His addition to the Bills could provide a dynamic, quick receiver option, and he may make an impact during training camp at St. John Fisher University later this summer.
