Buffalo Bills wideout Marquise Goodwin won't be making a return trip to the Olympics.

Goodwin finished seventh in the men's long jump at the U.S. Olympic Trials on Sunday. Only the top three finishers qualify for the Rio Games.

The 25-year-old wideout won the men's long jump at the U.S. Trials in 2012, registering a jump of 27 feet, 4 inches. But Goodwin didn't fare so well at the 2012 Olympics, finishing 10th in London.

Goodwin has spent his first three years in the NFL with the Bills. He played in just two games last season and was placed on season-ending injured reserve last October after suffering a rib injury in the preseason.
