Shawne Merriman to...the Bills? Jay Glazer of FOXSports.com says that may be happening.
Bills ‘Strongly Leaning’ Toward Claiming Shawne Merriman Off Waiver Wire
Shocker: hearing Bills strongly leaning toward claiming Merriman. Only way it doesn’t happen is if they change their minds last minute.
The Chargers waived Merriman on Tuesday which in turn placed him on the waiver wire. The deadline to claim him by any of the other 31 NFL teams is Wednesday at 4;00 p.m. If he is not claimed, he would become an unrestricted free agent and eligible to sign with anyone.
The Bills are at the top of the waiver wire so if they want Merriman, he’s theirs. Merriman is due just under $3.3 million this year so if the Bills did claim him they’d be responsible for the remainder of his contract.
As Brian Galliford over at Buffalo Rumblings writes, “Something must be brewing here.” Nothing will become official until 4:00 p.m. but Glazer says he has two sources tell him the Bills will do it.
