According to Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo, former Jaguars DT Foley Fatukasi had a free agent visit with the Texans on Wednesday and will visit the Bills today.
He was cut by the Jaguars to save money earlier this week but is already garnering some interest as a potential run stuffer for other defensive tackle-needy teams.
It’s worth pointing out signing Fatukasi to a contract wouldn’t count against a team in the compensatory pick formula since he was released.
Fatukasi, 30, is a former sixth-round pick of the Jets back in 2018 out of Connecticut. He played out the final year of his four-year, $2.6 million contract.
Fatukasi was testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time in his NFL career when he signed a three-year, $30 million deal with the Jaguars in 2022.
He was entering the final year of that deal and set to make a base salary of $7 million when the Jaguars released him.
In 2023, Fatukasi appeared in 16 games for the Jaguars and recorded 24 total tackles, three tackles for loss, no sacks and one pass deflection.
