Signed a one-year, $1.17 million contract with the Bills in September of 2025.
Joining Buffalo
The Bills signed Franklin to their practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
ANALYSIS
Franklin lands on his feet quickly after he was released by the Broncos earlier Tuesday. The veteran safety accrued 105 tackles and one interception in 74 contests in Carolina over the previous five seasons, but he saw the overwhelming majority of his snaps on special teams in 2024.
