NFL defensive end Leonard Floyd recently wrapped up a strong season with the Buffalo Bills and becomes a free agent in March.
Floyd could be open to returning to the Bills, but suggested he will enter free agency with a business approach.
The 31-year-old pass rusher's main goal is money.
“For me, I always go where the money goes. I'd rather be here, but it is what it is. It's a business. I'll go where my agent feels we get the most money.” Floyd said, via the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle.

The Bills will have cap limitations this offseason, so it may be difficult for the team to retain Floyd.

In 2021, Bills star quarterback Josh Allen signed a six-year contract extension worth up to $258 million. Allen's cap hit is projected to increase to an estimated $47 million for the 2024 season.

The Bills are projected to be more than $50 million over the NFL salary cap by 2024, according to Over the Cap.
Floyd was the ninth overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft. He spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Chicago Bears before being released after the 2019 season.
He landed with the Los Angeles Rams for the 2020 season. The former Georgia Bulldogs star then signed a multi-year contract extension and was a member of Los Angeles' Super Bowl-winning team.
