In the Community | How The Buffalo Bills Are Celebrating Native American Heritage Month

To kick off Native American Heritage month this November, the Buffalo Bills honored indigenous peoples at their November 3 game against the Miami Dolphins. Indigenous artist Jacky Snyder made beaded medallions for players Eli Ankou, Ty Johnson, and Alec Anderson, all of whom have indigenous roots. Indigenous artist Aryien Stevens made a beaded hat for Bills defensive coordinator Bobby Babich, who also has indigenous roots. At the game on Sunday, the Bills had members of the Salamanca Warriors and Seneca Sachems football teams, as well as Native American Community Services hold banners on-field pregame. The Color Guard was American Legion Iroquois Post 1587 Honor Guard. At halftime the K^tyohkwa performed a social dance. They are made up of individuals from the Six Nations Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, and Seneca. They are still here and carrying on their ways as native people to their homeland's pride, strength, and honor for their ancestors before them who handed down their ways to them. During the third quarter break, the Bills honored Specialist 4th Class Carson Waterman, a veteran of the United States Army.
