The Buffalo Bills have added a fascinating piece to their roster following the 2026 NFL Draft, signing a former Philadelphia Eagles Super Bowl champion who brings a rare level of versatility to the gridiron.

On Wednesday, Bills.com writer Alec White confirmed the team has inked former Eagles fullback Ben VanSumeren to a one-year deal. VanSumeren’s journey to Buffalo is anything but conventional—he’s a player who has seamlessly switched between linebacker, fullback, and special teams roles, making him a Swiss Army knife for any coaching staff.

Originally signed by the Eagles as an undrafted free agent in 2023, VanSumeren was listed as a linebacker while cutting his teeth on special teams. He made the switch back to fullback in 2024, a move he described as feeling "natural" and reminiscent of his youth football days. In just 20 career games since entering the league, the Michigan State product has already earned a Super Bowl ring—a rare feat for a player still under 30.

Now, with a dedicated focus on the fullback position, VanSumeren’s primary mission in Buffalo will be to pave the way for star running back James Cook. By creating clear running lanes and adding a physical presence to the backfield, he could be the key to unlocking even more production from the 26-year-old standout. For a Bills team looking to make a deep playoff push, this signing adds both depth and a winning pedigree.
