Overview
- Multiple reporters on X said the Buffalo Bills are signing defensive tackle Greg Gaines, with the reports published Tuesday and circulated by outlets citing those posts.
- The transaction has been reported by journalists rather than confirmed in a team press release, and some outlets note a discrepancy about whether Gaines spent two or three seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
- Gaines is a 6-foot-1, 312-pound nose tackle who was a 2019 fourth-round pick of the Los Angeles Rams and was part of the Rams’ Super Bowl-winning roster after the 2021 season.
- Pro Football Rumors reports Gaines signed an undisclosed deal with Buffalo and that the Bills released defensive tackle Tommy Akingbesote to open a roster spot for him.
- The move gives Buffalo a veteran rotation option on the interior defensive line and could ease depth concerns while the team evaluates starters and covers recent availability issues on the roster.
