The Buffalo Bills have signed undrafted rookie free agent Andrew George to address their depleted tight end position.

The 6-foot-5 George had a career-best 30 catches for 408 yards and five touchdowns at Brigham Young last year. He signed with Carolina in April before being released in June.

Signed by Buffalo on Tuesday, George joins J.P. Foschi to become the second tight end added to the team in consecutive days. The moves were prompted after tight end Michael Matthews hurt his left ankle on Monday.

Derek Schouman is expected to miss up to six weeks with a knee injury, and Shawn Nelson will miss the first four games of the season serving an NFL suspension.
