The Buffalo Bills have agreed to a deal with offensive veteran Brian Winters, with NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.
The New York Jets pitched Winters on Sunday, finishing their season in the Big Apple after seven seasons. The Jets decided on the 29-year-old in the third circular of the 2013 draft.
Rapoport described Winters as “a fair start at the beginning of camp” for the Bills, which is likely to be true. Winters made 89 general NFL appearances, and only 10 times he wasn’t in the box when New York embarked on his first offensive series.
Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN also reported that Jon Feliciano, who the 16 games in Buffalo’s right guard in 2019, will be out for 8 to 12 weeks after undergoing surgery for a torn chest muscle.
Winters represents a replacement that can slide into the first string.
However, the Kent State alumnus carries a risk point. He was limited to nine games in 2019, a touchdown in the injury reserve last November due to a shoulder injury that persisted during the season. Winters has played a full season only 3 times during his career.
