Buffalo Bills sign safety Kurt Coleman; Rafael Bush retires

The Buffalo Bills swapped one veteran safety for another on Friday, signing veteran Kurt Coleman to a one-year contract. Coleman, 31, comes to Buffalo after a one-year stint with the New Orleans Saints. He replaces veteran Rafael Bush, who announced his retirement.

Coleman has twice played on defenses run by current Bills head coach Sean McDermott. The 5’11”, 208-pound safety entered the league in 2010 as a seventh-round draft choice of the Philadelphia Eagles. McDermott was the defensive coordinator in Philadelphia that year.
