Bills’ 365-pound Mauler Sends Challenge to David Edwards – “I’m a Problem” Ahead of First Preseason Game
Share this article:
Just days before the Buffalo Bills kick off their first preseason game, rookie offensive lineman Mike Edwards has turned up the heat, aiming a bold challenge straight at starting Left Guard David Edwards.
In a post on social media, Mike Edwards declared: “I want David Edwards to know – I’m a problem.”
The message, paired with footage of him bulldozing defenders in training camp, sent a clear signal: the rookie is gunning for a starting role on Buffalo’s offensive line.
At 6’5” and 365 pounds, Mike Edwards brings rare size and raw power to the trenches. Signed as an undrafted free agent out of Campbell University, he’s been working primarily with the second-team offense. But with the preseason opener just around the corner, Edwards sees an opportunity to make his case against veteran David Edwards, a Super Bowl-winning guard with championship pedigree from his time with the Los Angeles Rams.
For the Bills, this competition could be a win-win. If Mike Edwards can push David Edwards in practice, it elevates the entire offensive line unit—something Buffalo desperately needs to protect Josh Allen and open lanes for the running game.
Mike Edwards: “I didn’t come here to sit and wait. I came to take a spot. And when I step on that field, I’m a problem.”
David Edwards joined the Bills in 2023 and has been a reliable starter at Left Guard, bringing stability and playoff experience. Mike Edwards, meanwhile, spent last year on the practice squad and is now looking to turn preseason reps into a breakthrough moment.
The battle between Mike Edwards and David Edwards is shaping up to be one of the most intriguing storylines of Buffalo’s training camp. With the first preseason game just days away, Bills fans will be watching closely to see if Mike can turn his “I’m a problem” warning into reality.
