Buffalo Bills fans saw a familiar name in NFL news on Sunday morning as the New York Giants signed former wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin. However, the former first round pick is returning to the NFL as a tight end.

The position switch certainly makes sense as Benjamin has the size at 6’5″ and 245 pounds but with below average speed, he needed to use that size more to beat cornerbacks and create separation.
