29 Kevon Seymour CB

Seymour (foot) rejoined the Bills during practice Monday, Mike Rodak of ESPN.com reports.

If nothing else, Seymour will provide an extra body for a secondary that recently lost Ronald Darby via trade and that's missing Shareece Wright (hand) for Monday's session. Since the Bills were able to pick up E.J. Gaines from the Rams as part of their flurry of transactions Friday, it's not expected that Seymour's standing on the depth chart will dramatically change, even if Gaines isn't immediately deployed with the first team in practices. Seymour still looks set to serve as a nickel or dime back in his second NFL campaign, though it's worth noting he was working with the 1's right away Monday, meaning he'll have an important role on this defense even if he does end up as the No. 3 corner.

Seymour, who suffered a foot injury during a recent training camp practice, is off crutches but still in a walking boot, Joe Buscaglia of 7 ABC Buffalo reports.

Seymour is competing with veteran Leonard Johnson for the No. 3 cornerback role, so it'd help his cause if he could get back on the field in short time.

Seymour has a foot injury and was unable to practice Monday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Seymour is currently in competition with veteran Leonard Johnson for the main nickelback role, while the top two corner spots appear to be locked up between Ronald Darby and rookie Tre'Davious White.

The Bills drafted cornerback Tre'Davious White -- who will presumably compete with Seymour for starting cornerback duties -- with the 27th overall pick in the draft last week.

Seymour was listed as a starting corner opposite Ronald Darby once Stephon Gilmore bolted to the Patriots, but the Bills obviously have big plans for White as they try to restock a depleted secondary. White doesn't have superstar skills even though he's expected to be a solid NFLer, so if he's slow to pick up the game then Seymour could still be a Week 1 starter. And with a new coach in town, many of the starting spots are going to come down to summer performances anyway.

With Stephon Gilmore moving on to the Patriots, Seymour is currently listed as a starting corner opposite Ronald Darby, BuffaloBills.com reports. "Last year I had a nice opportunity to get my feet wet and get the understanding of what being a starter felt like," Seymour said. "Now, the opportunity is here and I'm going to take full advantage of it as much as I can and I'm definitely excited about that."

Seymour was just a sixth-round pick out of USC during last year's draft, but he quickly out-kicked the coverage in terms of slotting and now he's got a good chance to start. The Bills will probably replenish their secondary in the draft, but with wideout and safety being bigger needs, Seymour's almost certain to be the favorite to start. We'll see how he does picking up new coach Sean McDermott's defense.
