2 solos, 1 asst, 1 sack, 1 TFL vs USC, in a game scouted by Bills higher-ups Terrence Gray and Brian Fisher. Traore had already notched 3 solos and a sack in the first scouted game vs Miami, so he didn't disappoint in either. An October 2024 knee injury will need vetting, as injuries along the Bills' DL are vexing enough. "BOBE-a-car tray-OR-ee"
