ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills signed defensive lineman Jarron Gilbert on Saturday.
Gilbert has been on the New York Jets practice squad the past two seasons. He appeared in one game with the Jets in 2010, playing against Buffalo in the season finale.
Gilbert was Chicago's third round pick out of San Jose State in 2009, and appeared in four games as a rookie with the Bears before being released before the 2010 season.
To make room for Gilbert, the Bills released linebacker Antonio Coleman.
Buffalo (5-8) hosts Miami (4-9) Sunday.
