Bills Sign DT Corey Liuget, Place LB Maurice Alexander On IR

The Buffalo Bills announced Tuesday that they’ve signed veteran DT Corey Liuget to a contract and placed LB Maurice Alexander on injured reserve. 

Liuget just worked out for the Bills on Monday and was apparently impressive enough to earn an offer from the team.

Liuget, 28, is a former first-round pick of the Chargers back in 2011. He finished the fourth year of his six-year, $58.219 million contract that included $30.477 million guaranteed when the Chargers declined his option earlier this year. 

Liuget missed the first four games of the 2018 season, due to a suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drugs policy. He landed on the injured reserve after sustained a right knee injury during Week 11.

Liuget caught on with the Raiders near the end of the preseason, but was just recently released. 

In 2019, Liuget has appeared in three games for the Raiders and recorded three tackles.
