Efe Obada has earned the trust of the Buffalo Bills’ coaching staff.

That was evident by the snap counts during the team’s 33-21 victory over the New England Patriots on Sunday at Gillette Stadium. Obada played 36 of the Bills’ 64 defensive snaps in the win. That was 59% of the defensive total, behind only defensive tackle Ed Oliver (43 snaps, 67%) in playing time along the defensive line.

^^ This is after their Dec 27, 2021 game vs Pats so its pretty deep into the season.

Stats say he started 1 game last year w the Bills, I guess they HEAVILY rotate the front 4 .. which seems to becoming the cool new thing to do. DL by committee.

Id guess he competes with the plethora of DE guys we have.

At 6'6" and 265 im sure he will get moved in some if he makes the roster but a tall and not stout body wont do well in the trenches on run plays.

Definitely not an interior guy, he's a DE. We have James Smith Williams but you have to run 4 deep at that position, especially with Chase coming back from an ACL.

Doubt this is for more than $1.0M or so. $2.0M at absolute max. Depth signing only. Probably competes with Shaka Toney and William Bradley King. Probably beats them both because they didn't add much for us. Competition.
