Bills Sign S Robert Blanton & DT Deandre Coleman

The Buffalo Bills announced Wednesday that they’ve signed S Robert Blanton and DT Deandre Coleman to contracts.

Blanton, 27, is a former fifth-round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft by the Vikings. He played out his rookie contract with the Vikings before signing a one-year, $840,000 deal with the Bills back in March of last year.

Blanton’s 2016 season came to an end after he was placed on injured reserve back in November. The Cowboys elected to cut Blanton loose as they trimmed their roster down to 53 players coming out of the preseason.
