Bills sign Wayne Hunter

The last time Rex Ryan coached a team trying to get Wayne Hunter to sign a contract, he got a tattoo of a Hawaiian design on his leg to show Hunter how much the Jets valued him.

Ryan landed Hunter that time and he’s landed Hunter again in Buffalo, presumably without any new ink being added to his body. The Bills announced Wednesday that they’ve signed Hunter, who worked out for the team last month.

The move to re-sign Hunter in 2011 didn’t work out all that well for the Jets, who missed the playoffs after two straight trips to the AFC title game and saw Hunter struggle in his only season as the team’s starter at right tackle.
