Keleki Latu - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Joins active roster The Bills signed Latu off their practice squad Saturday.

Impact The Washington product joining the Bills' active roster likely suggests one or both of Dalton Kincaid (knee, questionable) and Dawson Knox (knee, questionable) will be sidelined for Sunday's matchup against the Eagles. Latu has appeared in three games this season, catching his only target for four yards. He's expected to play a depth role in Buffalo's tight end corps in the Week 17 contest.

Returns to practice squad Latu reverted to the Bills' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Latu was elevated to the Bills' active roster for Sunday's game against the Steelers due to the absence of Dalton Kincaid (hamstring), though the former played just four of 74 offensive snaps. It was the third time Latu was elevated from the practice squad, which means he would have to be signed to Buffalo's active roster in order to continue to play for the team this season.

Elevated from practice squad The Bills elevated Latu from their practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus the Steelers.

Impact Latu will be elevated for a third straight game and could see an expanded role if Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) is unable to play again. This is the final time this season the team can elevate Latu and will have to sign him to the active roster in order for him to appear in another game.

Reverts to practice squad Latu reverted to the Bills' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Latu played 24 snaps (eight on offense, 16 on special teams) during the Bills' 23-19 loss to the Texans on Thursday, but he did not show up on the box score otherwise. It was his second elevation from the practice squad this season, so the undrafted rookie is eligible to be called up to Buffalo's active roster once more this season.

Elevated for TNF Buffalo elevated Latu from the practice squad ahead of Thursday night's game against the Texans.

Impact With Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) sidelined once again, Latu has been elevated for the second straight contest. Latu played six offensive snaps last Sunday against Tampa Bay and caught one pass for four yards.

Reverts to practice squad The Bills reverted Latu to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Latu was elevated for the first time this season ahead of Sunday's win over Tampa Bay. He logged six snaps on offense, catching his lone target for four yards. Latu also played 14 snaps on special teams and made two tackles (one following a Josh Allen interception and another on kick coverage) in the victory. The appearance was Latu's NFL debut after he signed with Buffalo as an undrafted free agent in late April.

Elevated for Week 11 Buffalo elevated Latu from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Impact The undrafted rookie out of Washington was unable to make the Bills' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he opted to stick around in Buffalo as a member of the team's practice squad. Latu will be available for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, when he'll provide additional depth at tight end in the absence of Dalton Kincaid (hamstring).

Rejoins Buffalo The Bills signed Latu to their practice squad Wednesday, Alec White of the team's official site reports.

Impact Latu was a cutdown-day casualty Tuesday, but he's remaining with Buffalo on the practice squad. Dalton Kincaid, Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes are the tight ends on the Bills' 53-man roster.

AUGUST 27 • ROTOWIRE

Shown door by Buffalo The Bills waived Latu on Tuesday.

Impact Latu -- an undrafted rookie -- and fifth-year tight end Zach Davidson were let go Tuesday, while rookie fifth-round pick Jackson Hawes made the 53-man roster as the No. 3 tight end behind Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox. He'll hope to secure a practice-squad spot if he clears waivers.

Set to sign with Buffalo Latu is slated to sign with the Bills, Randy Gurzi of SI.com reports.

Impact Latu recorded 371 yards and one touchdown for Washington in 2024. He didn't score multiple touchdowns in any of his four college seasons, split between California, Nevada and Washington, so it's no surprise Latu didn't hear his name called during the 2025 NFL Draft. If his deal with Buffalo is finalized, the 6-foot-6 tight end will take his talents to the east coast and attempt to make the team out of training camp.
