Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Kyle Williams signed a three-year contract extension with the team yesterday. Specific terms of the deal were not disclosed, but it’s potentially worth $14.4 million. Kyle received a roster bonus of $1.75 million and will make a base salary of $700,000 this season (up from the $445,000 he was previously scheduled to make on his old deal).
Kyle is a two-year starter for the Bills, but with the offseason additions of DTs Marcus Stroud and Spencer Johnson, and the return of tackle John McCargo, I’m guessing Kyle’s workload will be decreased this season. Obviously, the Bills have plans for him of they wouldn’t have given him this new deal. He will provide some much-needed depth and experience on the D-line.
