Bills HC Sean McDermott said OL Ike Boettger will be designated to return to practice today, per Alaina Getzenberg.
This opens up a three-week window for him to practice with the team before he has to be added to the active roster.
Boettger has been on the PUP list rehabbing a torn Achilles he suffered last season.
Boettger, 28, wound up signing on with the Bills as an undrafted free agent out of Iowa back in 2018. He received a three-year, $1.71 million deal but was waived coming out of the preseason.
The Chiefs claimed Boettger off waivers before waiving him a little over a week later. The Bills claimed Boettger back and he’s remained on the team since.
Buffalo re-signed him as a restricted free agent heading into 2021 and re-signed him to another one-year deal in 2022.
In 2021, Boettger appeared in 15 games for the Bills and made ten starts.
