ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills signed veteran defensive tackle Andre Fluellen, the team announced Monday.
Fluellen, 30, has played in 77 career games, including eight games last season for the Detroit Lions. He was a third-round pick of the Lions in 2008.
At 6-foot-2 and 280 pounds, Fluellen will join Jarius Wynn, Alex Carrington, Corbin Bryant and Stefan Charles in competing for a depth role behind Marcell Dareus and Kyle Williams. He also has the size to play 5-technique in three-man lines.
To make room for Fluellen on the 90-man roster, the Bills designated safety Deon Broomfield as waived/injured, meaning he will be placed on injured reserve if he clears waivers.
