  • Buffalo Bills defensive lineman Adolphus Washington was arrested Monday night on a weapons charge. Washington could now face disciplinary action from the NFL which might result in a suspension for the backup defender.
  • The Bills selected the Ohio State defender in the third round of the 2016 draft. While at Ohio State, Washington showed great ability to rush the passer, earning a pass-rush grade of 91.7 in the 2015 college football season, third among interior defenders.
  • Washington showed glimpses of his pass-rushing ability in limited snaps last season, collecting three sacks, which tied for second among rookie interior defenders. Although Washington had only three sacks his pass-rush productivity of 3.4 tied 13th among 18 rookie interior defenders, with only five total pressures on 134 pass-rush snaps (PRP measures pressure created on a per-snap basis with weighting toward sacks).
