Buffalo’s front office made a couple of roster moves on Tuesday. One to their active roster and the other to their practice squad. The Bills signed veteran free agent LB Jelani Jenkins.
Jenkins, 25, signed with the Oakland Raiders in free agency last spring. The fifth-year veteran was competing to become the starting weak side linebacker for the Raiders before he was placed on injured reserve by the club on Sept. 2nd. Two days later he reached an injury settlement and became a free agent.
A former fourth-round pick of the Miami Dolphins, Jenkins was a full-time starter for the Dolphins in 2014 and 2015 and still made seven starts for Miami last season.
