‘Zimmer’s strong play caught the attention of another NFL team. A league source told NYUP that a team attempted to sign Zimmer to their 53-man roster on Wednesday. Despite being one of the Bills’ protected players, opposing teams have a 48-hour window following the conclusion of Buffalo’s game to sign protected players off of practice squads. Instead of losing Zimmer, Buffalo signed him with the roster spot that was opened following Quinton Spain’s release.’
