The Bills new linebacker, Donnie Spragan, was on the field with his teammates for the first time this morning. The club signed Spragan early Saturday, after rookie linebacker Alvin Bowen left camp with a severe knee injury.
Spragan got in some extra work with the linebacking corps and his position coach Matt Sheldon after this morning's walk-through. He looks fit and ready to go. Spragan says he's been working out and lifting weights at his home in Oakland, but this is the first football work he's done since last year.
Spragan could be a good pick up for the Bills. He's an experienced hand, and he knows his way around the AFC East. Look for him to contribute on special teams right away and provide valuable backup depth at linebacker.
We'll hear more from Spragan tonight on News 4 at 5pm and 6pm. At 5, we also pose four (more like 5-or 6) questions to Bills Quarterbacks Coach Alex Van Pelt. And at 6, we go one on one with Bills guard Derrick Dockery.
