Today’s minor moves to wrap up the weekend:
Atlanta Falcons
- Signed: WR Slade Bolden, S Clifford Chattman, LB Andre Smith
Buffalo Bills
- Signed: RB Isaiah Bowser, LB Travin Howard, DE Shane Ray
Tampa Bay Buccaneers
- Signed: WR David Moore, OLB Markees Watts
Tennessee Titans
- Signed: CB LJ Davis
Ray is making a long-awaited return to the NFL. When he finished out his rookie contract with the Broncos after the 2018 season and failed to make the Ravens roster for the next year, Ray was away from professional football for about a year and a half. After a long hiatus, he signed with the Toronto Argonauts of the Canadian Football League. The Bills will give Ray a chance to return to the NFL, reuniting him with Von Miller from their days in Denver.
Ray saw early success in Denver, racking up 12.0 sacks in his first two years. But after earning a starting job in 2017, Ray suffered a season-ending wrist injury after only eight games. In 2018, another wrist surgery would force him to miss five more games. His injury problems did not leave him in Canada, as a torn bicep would force him to miss the Argonauts’ Grey Cup victory. He’ll hope to stay healthy in his NFL return.
