Buffalo Bills fullback Reggie Gilliam signed a two-year contract extension on Sunday that runs through the 2024 season.
Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed by the team, however NFL Network reported it was worth up to $5.2 million.
Also on Sunday, guard Rodger Saffold was activated from the non-football injury list and is expected to return to practice. He was placed on the list July 24 on the heels of injuring his ribs in a car accident.
Gilliam, 24, played in 16 games (five starts) last season. He played 14 percent of the Bills’ snaps on offense and 77 percent on special teams.
He rushed three times for three yards and caught three passes for 23 yards last season.
Saffold, 34, has started 111 of the 114 career games in which he has played for the then-St. Louis/Los Angeles Rams (2010-18) and Tennessee Titans (2019-21). He was named to the Pro Bowl last season.
The Bills signed him to a one-year deal in March.
