The Buffalo Bills are signing wrestler Gable Steveson to a standard three-year rookie deal, his agent told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Steveson hasn’t played football in the past and hadn’t worn cleats until a workout with the Bills, per Schefter. He’s expected to play defensive line for Buffalo.
“I have been fortunate to compete at the highest level of competition in my sport but am looking forward to the challenge of seeing how my wrestling skills may translate to football,” Steveson said, according to Schefter.
