Bills Sign First International Player from IPPP, Announce 12 Undrafted Free Agent Signings in 2021 NFL Draft

On Thursday, the Bills announced that they have signed seventh-rounder Travis Clayton to his rookie contract. Clayton is an offensive tackle from Basingstoke, England, and was selected as the 221st overall pick in the recent NFL draft. He is part of the International Player Pathway Program (IPPP), which has only produced two players so far – Clayton and offensive lineman Jordan Mailata in 2018.

In addition to Clayton, the Bills also announced the signings of 12 undrafted free agents. Among them is Southern Mississippi running back Frank Gore Jr., who shares a familial connection with former Bills running back Frank Gore Sr. Gore Sr. had a successful 16-year career in the NFL, accumulating over 16,000 rushing yards and 99 touchdowns.

The team also announced signings for offensive lineman Keaton Bills from Utah, punter Jake Browning from San Diego State, defensive end David Ugwoegbu from Houston, cornerback Keni-H Lovely from Western Michigan, offensive guard Gunner Britton from Auburn, cornerback Te’Cory Couch from Miami, defensive tackle Rondell Bothroyd from Oklahoma, offensive lineman Mike Edwards from Campbell, receiver Lawrence Keys from Tulane, defensive tackle Branson Deen from Miami, and receiver Xavier Johnson from Ohio State.
