Running back Reggie Bush is about to sign with his fifth NFL team in 11 NFL seasons, and that team is the Buffalo Bills.

The Associated Press is reporting that Bush visited the Bills on Monday, took a physical and will sign a one-year deal.

Bush, 31, played for the San Francisco 49ers in 2015 but suffered a season-ending left knee injury when he slipped on the concrete surrounding the playing field at St. Louis’ Edward Jones Dome.

Bush had just eight carries for 28 yards and four catches for 19 yards in five games when he went down in Week 8. He averaged more than 1,000 rushing yards per season from 2011-13 with the Dolphins and Lions but has been hindered by injuries since.

The Bills’ running backs have had a rough offseason. Karlos Williams has been suspended for the first four games of the season for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy. Fifth-round pick Jonathan Williams was charged with with DWI and LeSean McCoy was involved in a nightclub brawl in February but won’t face charges or league punishment.
