Bills call up LB Albright from practice squad

Down a key special teamer in LB Lerentee McCray this week the Bills added a linebacker to the active roster Saturday, calling LB Bryson Albright up from the practice squad.

“We need that big body on special teams,” said head coach Rex Ryan. “Pittsburgh has a big core group you know and we needed a big, fast guy so it makes sense.”

The Bills had an open roster spot after placing Percy Harvin on the Reserve/Non-Football Illness list.

Albright (6-5, 225) was originally signed by the Bills last May as an undrafted rookie.
