According to Peter Schrager, the Bills are exercising the fifth-year option for DE Gregory Rousseau.
The deadline for fifth-year options is in a few days. Buffalo will pay Rousseau $13.387 million fully guaranteed for the 2025 season.
Rousseau, 24, was a one-year starter at Miami and was named second-team All-American, ACC Defensive Rookie of the Year and first-team All-ACC. He chose to opt out of the 2020 season.
The Bills drafted Rousseau with the No. 30 pick in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He signed a four-year, $11,608,200 deal that included a $5,802,327 signing bonus.
The Bills picked up the fifth-year option for Rousseau in 2024.
