The 2024 season will be the Buffalo Bills' 55th in the National Football League, their 65th overall, their tenth full season under the ownership of Terry and Kim Pegula, and their eighth under the head coach/general manager tandem of Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane.

This will be their first season since 2019 without wide receiver Stefon Diggs, as he was traded to the Houston Texans along with a sixth-round selection in this year's NFL draft and a fifth-round selection in the 2025 NFL draft in exchange for a second-round selection (that originally belonged to the Minnesota Vikings) in the 2025 NFL draft.
