Palmer likely WR3 at best in 2026; may see niche role if Coleman and Bell win snaps.

Joshua PalmerWR

Palmer is likely to remain on Buffalo's roster in 2026 due to the prohibitive dead cap hit ($14.24 million if released), but he is expected to fight for snaps at best as the WR3, especially if Keon Coleman and Skyler Bell beat him out for playing time. The source projects Palmer will be used in a far more niche role this season given the Bills' acquisition of DJ Moore and the depth of the receiving corps. Palmer's contract has him valued at WR42 in the NFL, but his actual performance suggests he should not be paid like a top-50 wideout.

Source transcript excerpt
Palmer is likely to be on the Bills' roster this season... Allocating top-five cap dollars to someone who's probably fighting, at best, to be WR3 isn't ideal... I wouldn't be surprised if he's used in a far more niche role this season, especially if Coleman and Bell can beat him out for snaps.
