Hankerson, a 2011 third-round pick, is scheduled to be a free agent in March, meaning that his Bills career could last all of one game.
ESPN's Field Yates and Adam Schefter are reporting that the Buffalo Bills have been awarded wide receiver Leonard Hankerson on waivers. He had been waived by the New England Patriots on Sunday, and the Patriots had only claimed Hankerson on waivers from the Atlanta Falcons two weeks prior.
