Patriots Sign Versatile Fullback Gilliam

0:00It's March 27. Welcome to NFL News Today, powered by AI and Ready for Kickoff. The New England Patriots made a quiet move in free agency this year, signing former Buffalo Bill's full-back Reggie Gilliam to a three-year deal worth. $12 million. Unlike last year's big spending, this edition brings a versatile player to the roster without breaking the bank. While the signing itself made sense for the team's needs, the contract value caught some fans off guard. Gilliam steps in as a full-back, who can handle multiple roles on offense. Former Patriots' full-back James Devlin gave it a strong thumbs-up, calling Gilliam a smart pick-up. He highlighted how the player excels as a tough run-blocker and adds value in the run-and-pass games. Devlin pointed out Gilliam's skills in carrying the ball, catching passes, and making defenders miss once he has it in his hands. That all-around ability could really boost New England's offense. With Gilliam now in the mix, the Patriots look set to add some grit and flexibility
