Former Alabama safety signed to Bills practice squad
One of Alabama’s former safeties, Jared Mayden, signed with the Buffalo Bills practice squad on Monday. He last played for the Philadelphia Eagles before being released in September.
Mayden spent four seasons playing safety at Alabama. He recorded 82 tackles, three tackles for loss, and four interceptions. The native of Sachse, Texas played in 34 total games during his Alabama career.
In 2020, Mayden went undrafted before signing as a free agent with the San Fransisco 49ers. He spent almost two seasons there before he was waived and claimed off of waivers by the Eagles. In the six games that he has played in the NFL, Mayden has tallied seven tackles.
With the Bills having several injuries in the secondary, Mayden could be called on sooner rather than later.
