The Bills are signing quarterback Keith Wenning, as Field Yates of ESPN.com tweets. He’ll provide the team with depth to close out the preseason as Tyrod Taylor and T.J. Yates deal with concussions.
Before Wenning was added to the roster, Nathan Peterman was the team’s only healthy quarterback. Naturally, the Bills do not want to play Peterman for the entire preseason finale, so Wenning will be able to take the snaps as well as the injury risk.
Wenning has familiarity with offensive coordinator Rick Dennison, so he should be able to jump in pretty quickly and figure out the offense. And, in the unlikely event that both Taylor and Yates are not cleared for Week 1, Wenning could have a chance at a job.
