Bills Release Veteran DT Tyrunn Walker

Tom Pelissero reports that the Bills are releasing veteran DT Tyrunn Walker on Saturday as they cut their roster down to 53 players.

The Bills roster cuts currently consist of:

  1. LB Tanner Vallejo
  2. DE Ryan Russell
  3. OL Gerhard de Beer
  4. WR Corey Coleman
  5. DB Dean Marlowe
  6. WR Cam Phillips
  7. TE Keith Towbridge
  8. FB Sam Rogers
  9. Adam Redmond
  10. DT Albert Havili
  11. CB Breon Borders
  12. DT Tyrunn Walker

Walker, 28, originally signed on with the Saints as an undrafted free agent out of Tulsa back in 2012. After two years in New Orleans, Walker signed a one-year, $1.75 million deal with the Lions back in March of 2015 and later returned to Detroit on another one-year contract.

The Rams signed Walker to a one-year, $775,000 contract last March only to release soon after sexual assault allegations surfaced against him. Once Walker was cleared in the matter, he returned to the Rams on another one-year deal.

He signed with the Bills earlier this offseason, making his stay in Buffalo short-lived.

In 2017, Walker appeared in all 16 games for the Rams and recorded 23 tackles, one sack, a forced fumble, a recovery and four pass defenses. Pro Football Focus has him rated as the No. 110 interior defender out of 122 qualifying players.
