Bills land undrafted free agent UB QB Jackson
The Buffalo Bills have agreed to a deal with undrafted University at Buffalo quarterback Tyree Jackson, pending a physical.
The deal will include $75,000 guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
Bills general manager Brandon Beane said Saturday he was surprised the 6-foot-7 Jackson was not among 11 signal-callers selected in the draft. Jackson was ESPN's eighth-ranked quarterback prospect and fourth-highest-ranked player not to be picked.
"I truly thought he would be drafted. He was on our draft board to be drafted," Beane said. "You start sitting there in the seventh [round] and thinking, man, if this guy doesn't get drafted we'll have to go after him."
