Jairus Byrd seeks a trade from the Buffalo Bills by the Oct. 29 deadline.

Byrd and the Bills are coming out of contentious contract discussions in which he was forced to played under the $6.9 million tender.

Byrd will miss the start of the season due to a lingering plantar fasciitis injury.

Byrd played with the injury last season hoping he would secure a long-term contract.

Byrd is one of the NFL's best safeties.
