Rehkow signs as free agent

Former Idaho punter and placekicker Austin Rehkow signed a free agent contract with the Buffalo Bills Saturday night following the conclusion of the 2017 NFL Draft.

Rehkow finished his career at Idaho as a Lou Groza and Ray Guy award semifinalist, setting a Sun Belt Conference record for the most points in a single season by a kicker with 120. Rehkow also went 26 of 29 in field goal attempts for the Vandals in 2016.

Rehkow is expected to challenge Colton Schmidt for punting duties as part of the special teams unit this upcoming season.
