The Buffalo Bills have added linebacker Shayne Simon to their roster, signing the player just ahead of more spring practices.
Simon was an undrafted prospect following the 2024 NFL draft. He joins the team after he attended multiple rookie tryout camps with teams post draft, including one in Buffalo.
Most recently, Simon played the past two seasons at Pitt. From 2018-2021, Simon attended Notre Dame.
In 12 games last season, Simon had 48 tackles, including 7.5 for loss and five sacks.
As any late signee, Simon will have an uphill battle to a roster spot with the Bills.
Simon could potentially be helped by the kickoff rule changes made by the NFL this offseason which might require more players with Simon’s profile to be on the roster. Regardless, he’s likely a practice squad candidate.
In a corresponding move, offensive lineman Tommy Doyle was placed on the waived/injured list.
Bills Wire will provide all roster updates throughout the offseason.
