The Buffalo Bills fortified the offensive line in front of Josh Allen, by signing veteran center Will Clapp on Friday afternoon.
Clapp, 27, spent last season with the Los Angeles Chargers, where he only allowed one sack in 702 total offensive snaps. As Pro Football Focus points out, Clapp only surrendered 24 quarterback pressures during the 2023 campaign.
Clapp will likely compete for the role as the Bills’ swing-offensive guard while providing quality depth behind stalwart center Connor McGovern.
Originally chosen by the New Orleans Saints in the 2018 NFL Draft, Clapp has appeared in 65 games thus far in his NFL career, and arrives in Buffalo after spending the past two seasons with the Chargers.
The Challenge Josh Allen Presents Buffalo Bills Offensive Linemen
Josh Allen is one of the premier quarterbacks in the NFL, but the Buffalo Bills signal caller keeps his offensive linemen on their toes.
Even tight end Dalton Kincaid knows that when Josh Allen is on the field, even when it seems like a play has broken down, the down isn’t over until the whistle.
“With Josh… having that in-game experience, figuring what he likes to do,” Kincaid said, during an appearance on FanDuel’s Up and Adams. “It doesn’t matter where the hell you are.”
Allen passed for 4,306 yards with 29 touchdowns to 18 interceptions last season.
