The team's statistical leaders included George Ratterman with 1,840 passing yards, Chet Mutryn with 868 rushing yards and 73 points scored, and Al Baldwin with 468 receiving yards.[2]
Although the All-America Football Conference was integrated from its inception, the 1947 Bills did not have a single black player on their roster.[3]
