2025 Buffalo Bills training camp preview: Quarterbacks
The Buffalo Bills are moving into their next major offseason phase in due time: Training camp.

Today's training camp preview will focus on Buffalo's quarterback situation.

The Bills start and end with Josh Allen. Period.
The 2024 NFL MVP completed a monstrous campaign last season, compiling 41 total touchdowns (28 passing, 12 rushing, and 1 receiving). He established a career-best 1.2-percent interception ratio. Allen tied for the league lead in QBR rating with Lamar Jackson.
All told, Allen went 307-of-483 for 3,731 passing yards. Allen added 531 rushing yards on 102 carries.
Allen's highlights were crazy to consider. He had a six-touchdown game versus the Los Angeles Rams. He was the first quarterback in NFL history to throw a touchdown, catch a touchdown, and rush for a touchdown in a game.

Multiple times, the Bills put the weight of the team on Allen's back, and each time, he met the challenge.

It's difficult to imagine anyone else behind center of this team. If Allen were to miss substantial time, it would likely be the demise of the Bills' season.
Short-term, though, Buffalo believes they have solid options to get by.
Mitchell Trubisky slots in as the No. 2 quarterback on the roster. While he does not have the arm of Allen, Trubisky can run offensive coordinator Joe Brady's offense if called upon. He is mobile enough to run a similar scheme without the offense taking a massive detour from their core play-calling.

Mike White and Shane Buechele round out the quarterback room.
White is a journeyman quarterback who found his way onto Bills highlight film when Matt Milano crushed him as the New York Jets' quarterback. White does, however, have some experience, going 2-5 as a starter for the Jets early in his career.
Buechele projects as a camp arm and a practice squad candidate.
In 2025...
Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (17) looks around for an open receiver during second half action at Highmark Stadium where the Buffalo Bills hosted the New England Patriots in Orchard Park on Dec. 22, 2024.
As challenging as it may be, Allen may need to produce even more if the Bills are to take that final step toward the Super Bowl. While Allen's postseason heroics have been nothing short of amazing, they have gone for naught as the Bills still have failed to get past the AFC Championship game.

Indiana Fever Make Caitlin Clark Request After Recent Setback
Indiana Fever Make Caitlin Clark Request After Recent Setback originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The Indiana Fever have, once again, fallen below .500 to begin the 2025 WNBA season, falling to the Los Angeles Sparks 85-75 on their home court. Advertisement Now, the Fever will cap off a back-to-back with a Friday night matchup against Paige Bueckers and the Dallas Wings. But the Fever could be without All-WNBA point guard Caitlin for a second straight game. Clark was ruled out for the Sparks game after suffering a groin injury late in Tuesday's win over the Seattle Storm. After playing every game in 2024, the former Iowa Hawkeyes star has now missed six games this season. Indiana is 2-4 in those contests. Yet, even with Clark out, the Fever remain supportive of her WNBA All-Star campaign. On Friday, the final day when All-Star fan voting counts twice, Indiana took to social media to request fans to go vote for Clark. Advertisement "almost as sweet as her stepback 🍪😏," the Fever wrote on X. "votes count DOUBLE today, send Caitlin Clark to #WNBAAllStar2025" Clark initially missed five games earlier in the year due to a quad strain. Upon her return on June 14, she went through a three-game stretch of poor shooting, going 1-of-23 (4.3%) from 3-point range before suffering her new setback. Still, Clark has remained one of the top WNBA players over the entire season. Through nine games played, she is averaging 18.2 points, 5.0 rebounds and 8.9 assists per game. She is tied for the most assists per game in the WNBA with Phoenix Mercury forward Alyssa Thomas Indiana Fever guard Caitlin ClarkGrace Smith/INDIANAPOLIS STAR-Imagn Images The Fever will face the Wings on Friday at 7:30 p.m. ET. At the time of this article, it is unclear whether Clark will be able to play. Advertisement The final day for WNBA All-Star voting is on Saturday. The All-Star game will take place on July 19 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse (Indianapolis, IN).

Dream's Brittney Griner Makes Unexpected Personal Move
Dream's Brittney Griner Makes Unexpected Personal Move originally appeared on Athlon Sports. Brittney Griner and the Atlanta Dream have opened the 2025 WNBA season atop the Eastern Conference standings, sitting in second place with a 10-5 record. Advertisement While the Dream have found success this season, Griner has taken a step back in her first year with the team, allowing star teammates like Allisha Gray and Rhyne Howard to lead the way. The 6-foot-9 center is averaging 9.3 points and 5.6 rebounds per game through 13 games - career lows in her 11-year WNBA tenure. Even so, Griner appears content in her new role and continues to engage with fans, including Australian gold medalist skateboarder Arisa Trew. Atlanta Dream center Brittney GrinerDale Zanine-Imagn Images On Friday, the X Games' official Instagram account posted a video of Griner swapping jerseys with the skateboarder, a move that's more commonly seen between basketball players. Advertisement Griner even signed the jersey with a personal message for Trew. "Wow, this is so cool," Trew said as she received the signed Griner jersey. "Thank you so much, Brittney. This is so cool." Trew, from Cairns, Queensland, Australia, is only 15 years old and has already earned nine gold medals in international competition, including the 2024 Paris Olympics (1 gold medal), the World Championships in Rome (1) and three different X Games events (7). That total includes her most recent win at last weekend's X Games in Osaka. She also became the youngest-ever from her country to win an Olympic gold medal. Advertisement "Who said jersey swaps need to be in the same sport?" the X Games captioned its post. "Brittney Griner is a huge fan of @arisa_trew and sent her a signed jersey. So naturally, we made Arisa a #XGames jersey to send back 🏀🛹" Griner and the Dream look to avoid a two-game losing streak as they begin a four-game homestand with a matchup against Napheesa Collier and the WNBA-leading Minnesota Lynx.

Giannis Antetokounmpo's Cryptic Reaction Seems To Mock Trade Rumors As Warriors, Knicks Show Interest
Giannis Antetokounmpo's Cryptic Reaction Seems To Mock Trade Rumors As Warriors, Knicks Show Interest originally appeared on Fadeaway World. The Giannis Antetokounmpo trade saga began ever since the Bucks' first-round exit in the 2025 NBA Playoffs. After weeks of rumors and deliberations around his future, he and people close to him finally broke their silence on his future and clarified that he has no interest in leaving the Bucks at the moment. Moreover, he even claimed that he plans to retire with the Bucks. Therefore, seemingly puts a public end to the rumors. Advertisement Yet, according to the NY Post, three new teams have entered the race, beyond previously known interested teams. The Knicks, Warriors, and Heat are reportedly teams interested in trading for Giannis beyond the Spurs, Nets, and the Rockets. Shortly after a social media post on this went viral, Antetokounmpo posted a cryptic message from his X account, seemingly asking teams to "pull up" with multiple laughing emojis. Giannis is seemingly confident in his influence on the Bucks' front office and wants to say that even if these teams come to the front office with their best offers, it will be of no use since he has committed his long-term future to the organization. He is seemingly amused that the rumor mill seems to keep generating these team names and interest rumors without any basis or interest from Antetokounmpo to join those teams. Advertisement Only based on that first impression, several fans even commented on his post, suggesting the potential places where he should "pull up" in the trade market. Hence, we are also going based on the first impression of what he is trying to say, and it may be inaccurate in some way. The Greek superstar averaged 30.4 points, 11.9 rebounds, and 6.5 assists in the regular season this year. The entire Bucks roster is built around him, and there is no incentive for the Bucks to trade their best player and go into a full rebuild at this point. Antetokounmpo has three years (including a player option) left on his contract with the Bucks, and he fully intends on honoring his commitment. What Can An NBA Team Do To Convince Bucks To Trade Giannis With Damian Lillard out for the foreseeable future with an ACL injury, the Bucks are severely handicapped in terms of putting together a championship-contending roster in the next season without him. Moreover, the Bucks have severely depleted their draft assets, so they do not have much to offer another team in a trade to bring more solid pieces around Giannis. Advertisement Therefore, the Bucks have two options from here: either they trade their superstar Antetokounmpo and go into a full rebuild mode with the assets they get, or they put all the pressure on their one player to carry the team to what will likely be mediocrity. Lillard's injury has seriously hindered the championship window the Bucks had with him and Giannis. To convince the Bucks to trade Giannis, in my opinion, at least two young stars with a high upside and three first-round draft picks, along with additional swaps or second-round picks, should be enough to give the Bucks significant assets to initiate their rebuild. If they trade Antetokounmpo, they will likely show Lillard the exit door next when he becomes trade-eligible.
