Report: Bills plan to hold 2023 training camp at St. John Fisher
The Buffalo Bills will make it back-to-back years for St. John Fisher University.
The Pittsford/Rochester located school will reportedly host the team for training camp once again this upcoming summer, according to WROC-TV:
According to multiple sources, #Bills plan on having training camp at St. John Fisher again for 2023.
This plan is only for this year and does not represent a long term commitment.
But at least for this summer, Rochester should expect to see the team up close and in person. pic.twitter.com/Kzl7jsdNPI

As noted, the return to the school in 2023 is only a type of a one-year deal. While potentially worrisome, the two sides came to a similar agreement a year ago and the Bills are back.
For two summers during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Bills held training camp back in the team’s facilities in Orchard Park.
Since Sean McDermott and Brandon Beane have taken over their respective positions in Buffalo’s front office, the club has cut back appearances out in Rochester during the summer. They’ve appeared to prefer having it held in Orchard Park, but never outwardly say that.
St. John Fisher began hosting Buffalo for training camp in 2000. Prior to that, it was held at Fredonia State (1981-1999) and Niagara University (1968-1980).
The team itself has not yet confirmed it will return to St. John Fisher just yet. If and when they do, Bills Wire will provide that information when it is made available.
