Sources: Bills re-sign TE Jason Croom to 1-year deal

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills have re-signed tight end Jason Croom to a one-year contract, sources told ESPN's Field Yates.

An exclusive-rights free agent, Croom missed the entire 2019 season with a hamstring injury. He caught 22 passes for 258 yards in 2018.

While his return was expected given his ERFA status, Croom's signing gives Buffalo five tight ends on its 53-man roster, including 2019 draftees Dawson Knox and Tommy Sweeney, Lee Smith and the recently restructured Tyler Kroft.

Croom, 26, first signed with the Bills as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee in 2017, but didn't record his first NFL snap until the following season.
