RB/FB Mike Tolbert

5’9”, 250 pounds

College: Coastal Carolina (UFA with San Diego Chargers)

31 years old, 10th season

2016 stats: 16 games, 35 attempts, 114 yards, 3.3 avg, 5 first downs

MIKE TOLBERT. B. Mike Tolbert is a high-profile name that will bring timely production on the offensive end. Listed as a HB/FB, Tolbert will likely see most of his snaps as a running back next season — especially with the team signing Patrick DiMarco this offseason. His “bulldozer” style of play will come in handy on the goal-line and in short-yardage situations, which is where we will mostly see him. I like this signing because of his veteran presence in the locker room and I see him scoring a couple of touchdowns next year.. RB/FB. Buffalo Bills
