The Bills signed former Eagles fullback/linebacker Ben VanSumeren to a one-year contract, according to the team and league reports.

The Buffalo Bills signed former Philadelphia Eagles fullback and linebacker Ben VanSumeren to a one-year deal on Tuesday, the team announced.

NFL.com also listed VanSumeren in its April 29 transaction roundup, and NBC Sports and Yahoo Sports later reported the move. The signing adds a versatile depth piece to Buffalo’s roster.

VanSumeren previously played for the Eagles, where he was used as a fullback/linebacker.

No further terms were reported beyond the one-year contract. The move gives Buffalo another option in a hybrid role as teams continue to look for flexible depth on special teams and in short-yardage packages.
