Report: S Lewis Cine joining Bills, rebuffs Jets
Aug 20, 2022; Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA; Minnesota Vikings safety Lewis Cine (6) warms up before the game against the San Francisco 49ers at U.S. Bank Stadium. Mandatory Credit: Jeffrey Becker-USA TODAY Sports Safety Lewis Cine will be joining the practice squad of an AFC East franchise in New York -- just not the one that previously was reported.
ESPN reported on Thursday that the former first-round draft pick plans to sign with the Buffalo Bills instead of the New York Jets.
Cine's former position coach at the University of Georgia, Jahmile Addae, is now a secondary coach with the Bills.
Cine, 24, was waived by the Minnesota Vikings on Tuesday after efforts to trade him were unsuccessful.
The Vikings selected Cine No. 32 overall in the 2022 NFL Draft. He suffered a compound leg fracture in Week 4 of his rookie season. He returned in 2023 and played in seven games, mostly on special teams. He has played just 10 defensive snaps in 10 games (zero starts) across two seasons.
