The Buffalo Bills and veteran wide receiver Tavon Austin have mutually agreed to part ways.

The Bills released the 32-year-old from their practice squad Wednesday. Austin is hoping to get more playing time with another team. He has not seen any NFL action this season.

The Bills signed Austin to a one-year contract on June 3.

A first-round pick (eighth overall) in 2013, Austin caught 24 passes for 213 yards and one touchdown in 13 games (three starts) with Jacksonville in 2021.

Austin has 244 receptions for 2,239 yards and 16 touchdowns in 113 games (53 starts) with the St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams (2013-17), Dallas Cowboys (2018-19), Green Bay Packers (2020) and Jaguars.

He has also rushed for 1,361 yards and has career totals of 5,534 all-purpose yards and 29 touchdowns.
