Report: Bills Sign Guard Richie Incognito
Published at
National Football League(NEW YORK) — Richie Incognito is back in the NFL.
According to various reports, the former Miami Dolphins guard has agreed on a deal to play for the Buffalo Bills this upcoming season.
At his introductory press conference, new Bills head coach Rex Ryan stated he wanted to build a bully in Buffalo. It appears he’s taken that philosophy quite literally.
Incognito has been out of the NFL since he was the central figure of the bullying scandal that rocked the Dolphins and the NFL during the middle of the 2013 season.
Fellow offensive lineman Jonathan Martin felt compelled to leave the team mid-season as a result of the torment inflicted by Incognito and others.
Attitude aside, the addition of Incognito is actually a boost to the offensive line unit for the Bills. Pro Football Focus rated Bills’ guards Kraig Urbik, Cyril Richardson, and Erik Pears among the bottom-third in the NFL this past season.
The 31-year-old Incognito is an eight-year NFL veteran who has played for the St. Louis Rams and Dolphins during his career.
