Released with injury settlement
The Bills released Ray (hamstring) off injured reserve with an injury settlement Friday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Ray landed on injured reserve Monday after suffering a hamstring injury in Saturday's preseason contest against Pittsburgh. Since he and Buffalo agreed upon an injury settlement, he's free to sign with another NFL team immediately. Ray's hamstring issue was originally described as minor, but it's uncertain if that's still the case.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Attempting comeback
Ray recently signed a contract with the Bills after he attended the team's rookie minicamp, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The 29-year-old edge rusher is anything but a rookie, having been a first-round pick of the Broncos in 2015 and recording eight sacks in 16 games in his second season. Injuries derailed Ray's career after that, however, and he last played in the NFL in 2018, instead spending the last two years in the CFL. If he's healthy and shows he can still contribute, Ray could provide some pass-rush depth behind Von Miller, his former teammate in Denver.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2018
2017
2016
Ray will be playing for his next contract in 2018 after the Broncos decided not to pick up his fifth-year option. The 2015 first-round pick contributed four sacks in reserve duty as a rookie and then finished second on the team with eight sacks in 2016, also picking up two fumble recoveries and a touchdown in the process. He took a few steps back following an offseason wrist injury in 2017, winding up with just one sack in eight games. The Broncos' brass had enough questions about Ray to turn down lucrative offers to trade back in the 2018 draft, instead selecting Bradley Chubb fifth overall. It's not impossible for Ray to bounce back and earn a big contract, but he'll face stiffer competition to operate opposite Von Miller from both Chubb and Shaq Barrett, who also enters a contract year.
