The Buffalo Bills have some heavy hitters on their defensive front, but Javon Solomon could be a name for the future to keep an eye on.
The Troy pass rusher said at the 2024 NFL scouting combine that he had spoken with the Bills at the event.
At just over six-feet tall and 245 pounds, Solomon is not the biggest pass-rushing prospect. However, the edge defender had a strong 2023 season.
Pro Football Focus graded him a 90.9 overall mark, which was the ninth-best grade the football analytics outlet gave to any edge defender prospect in the 2024 draft. Solomon is PFF’s No. 92 on their big board.
The Draft Network notes his size as a concern as well, but says he has upside as a situational pass rusher. He is projected by TDN as a Day 3 pick at the upcoming draft.
Solomon confirmed via WUFO radio that he spoke to the Bills, which can be found below, along with a collection of his highlights:
