The Buffalo Bills have signed former Kansas City Chiefs slot corner Phillip Gaines. Drafted by the Chiefs in the 2014 NFL Draft with the 87th pick (third round). In four years with Kansas City, Gaines has appeared in only 41 games and started 16 of these. Primarily used in the slot role with the Chiefs, the Bills could be looking to fill the spot occupied by Leonard Johnson in 2017.
Gaines has a fairly substantial injury list, being placed on IR during two of his four seasons. An ACL tear in September of 2015 robbed him of most of that season.
