Bills Hosting LB Bruce Carter For A Visit

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Bills will host free agent LB Bruce Carter for a visit on Friday.

Carter has met with the Jets and Lions this week, so it appears as though his market is really starting to pick up.

It’s worth mentioning that signing Carter to a contract wouldn’t factor into a team’s 2017 compensatory picks.

Carter, 28, is a former second-round pick of the Cowboys back in 2011. He played out his rookie contract before signing on with the Buccaneers in March of last year.

Carter was in the second year of his four-year, $17 million contract when he was released in a move that freed up $4,250,000 in available cap space for the Buccaneers right before the start of free agency.

In 2015, Carter appeared in 14 games and recorded 47 tackles, two sacks, and two pass defenses for the Buccaneers. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 68 linebacker out of 97 qualifying players.

We have him featured in our Best Available Free Agents list.
