The Buffalo Bills are kicking off the week with a smart addition to their defensive lineup, signing veteran outside linebacker Mike Danna to a one-year deal. This move brings a seasoned playmaker to the Bills' roster, adding depth and experience to their pass rush.
Danna, 28, spent his first six NFL seasons with the Kansas City Chiefs before being released in February. In the 2025 season, he proved his durability and impact, starting 14 of 15 games and tallying 25 total tackles, three tackles for loss, four quarterback hits, a sack, and an interception. His ability to disrupt opposing offenses makes him a valuable asset for Buffalo's defensive schemes.
A fifth-round pick in the 2020 draft out of Michigan, Danna has built a solid career résumé. Over 87 games (49 starts), he's recorded 21.5 sacks, 25 tackles for loss, and 51 quarterback hits. But what truly sets him apart is his championship pedigree—Danna is a two-time Super Bowl champion, winning back-to-back titles with the Chiefs in 2022 and 2023. That kind of big-game experience is exactly what a contender like the Bills needs as they gear up for another playoff push.
For fans looking to rep their new favorite defensive star, gear up in Bills blue and get ready for a season of high-energy football. Whether you're watching from the stands or your living room, Danna's arrival is a sign that Buffalo is all in on winning now.
