The Bills announced they signed veteran and former Carolina Panthers linebacker Shaq Thompson, and probably means the end is near for another Bills linebacker.

The Buffalo Bills signed Shaq Thompson to a one-year contract in providing the veteran linebacker an opportunity to continue his career after two injury-shortened seasons.

This late in the offseason teams usually have most of their roster set but the Buffalo Bills have found one more piece to plug into Sean McDermott's defense, adding veteran linebacker Shaq Thompson to the fold.
