Recently, reporter Tom Pelissero from the NFL Network, took to Twitter to talk about the AFC East division’s Buffalo Bills’ decision about Carlos Basham Jr. It took the internet by storm as this was a rather surprising decision. Boogie played for Josh Allen‘s Buffalo Bills as a defensive end from 2021-2023.
Buffalo picked Basham in the 2nd round of the 2021 NFL Draft out of Wake Forest. He has successfully defended two passes, mounted up to 19 combined tackles, a touchdown, and an interception in the last season. In total, he was able to manage 2.5 sacks and 18 combined tackles in 2021 in 8 games. Due to a peculiar trade, he had to leave Bills which created a lot of spur online.
