Buffalo Bills Sign Linebacker Otis Reese

The Buffalo Bills have officially signed linebacker Otis Reese to a contract. This announcement coincides with the placement of linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles on injured reserve.

Reese, who is 28 years old, initially joined the Tennessee Titans as an undrafted free agent from Ole Miss in 2023. After being cut from the Titans' final roster, he was re-signed to their practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster in December 2023 and remained until the final roster cuts in 2025. Reese later joined the Bills' practice squad but was released in October, subsequently signing with the Patriots' practice squad. New England re-signed him on a futures deal, but he was released during training camp.

In the 2024 season, Reese played in 13 games for the Titans, accumulating 17 tackles, one tackle for loss, one interception, and two pass defenses.
