Bills Sign Shaq Thompson to One-Year Deal
The Buffalo Bills announced on Tuesday that they signed free-agent linebacker Shaq Thompson (Achilles) to an undisclosed one-year deal. Thompson heads to the AFC East after spending the first 10 years of his NFL career with the Carolina Panthers, where he racked up 752 tackles (470 solo), 12 sacks, 54 tackles for loss, 32 QB hits, three interceptions, 26 pass breakups, four forced fumbles and four fumble recoveries (one returned for a touchdown). The 31-year-old former first-rounder played in only four games in his final year in Carolina in 2024 before suffering a torn Achilles. He also played in just two games in 2023 due to a fractured fibula, so it remains to be seen if Thompson will be able to recapture his pre-injury form in Buffalo. The Bills will take a chance on him in 2025, though, and he could bounce back after four straight seasons of 100-plus combined tackles from 2019-22.
