Sam Rogers signed as backup after Zach Olstad injured ankle

The Buffalo Bills have made a change at the backup fullback position, inking Sam Rogers to a contract, according to head coach Sean McDermott. Rogers, who was waived by the Los Angeles Rams in May, will serve as the primary backup to veteran starter Patrick DiMarco.

Rogers was selected by the Rams with the 22nd pick of the sixth round (pick No. 206 overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft out of Virginia Tech. After initially being cut by the team in September, Rogers spent his rookie season on the Rams’ practice squad.
