The Buffalo Bills are getting set to play their final preseason game this week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Ahead of that, though, Buffalo has signed a running back to add to their offense

The Bills have signed running back running back Elijah Young, the team announced Wednesday. Young is a rookie out of Western Kentucky. He ran for 883 yards and three touchdowns. He also caught 47 passes for two scores, as well. Young signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent earlier in the offseason before getting released and landing with the Bills.

The Bills recently extended running back James Cook on a four-year deal, and also have Ray Davis and Ty Johnson behind him.
