PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — The Buffalo Bills have begun adding to their banged-up tight end corps by signing free agent J.P. Foschi (FAH-shee).
Listed at 6-foot-4 and 265 pounds, Foschi has four years NFL experience. He spent last season with Cincinnati, where he set career highs with 27 catches for 260 yards and two touchdowns in 15 games, including 10 starts. Foschi has also played for Kansas City and Oakland.
Bills coach Chan Gailey coached Foschi at Georgia Tech.
The move was made Monday, a day after Michael Matthews hurt his left foot in practice. That injury left Jonathan Stupar as the Bills’ only healthy tight end heading into their preseason game against Cincinnati on Saturday.
The Bills also waived defensive back John Destin.
