Bills Interested In Signing LB Nigel Bradham To A Contract Extension

Rand Getlin of Yahoo Sports, citing a league source, reports that the Bills are interested in signing LB Nigel Bradham to a contract extension.

He saw more playing time in 2014 after Kiko Alonso went down with a season-ending injury. The Bills have some talent at linebacker, but Bradham has shown enough this season for them to consider negotiating a long-term extension.

Bradham, 25, still has another year remaining on his four-year, $2.564 million rookie contract. He stands to make a base salary of $660,000 for the 2015 season.

This season, Bradham appeared in 14 games and recorded 105 tackles, 2.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, an interception, and seven pass defenses for the Bills’ defense.

Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 13 outside linebacker in a 4-3 system out of 40 qualifying players.
