NFL Rumors: Ex-Eagles RB Kenjon Barner to Visit Bills in Free Agency
Free-agent running back Kenjon Barner is reportedly meeting with the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Barner spent the past four seasons with the Philadelphia Eagles after being selected in the sixth round of the 2013 NFL draft by the Carolina Panthers out of Oregon.
In 2017, Barner rushed for 57 yards and one touchdown on 16 carries, while catching five passes for 56 yards. He also averaged 8.9 yards on 27 punt returns and 19.4 yards on 10 kickoff returns for the Super Bowl champion Eagles.

During his five-year NFL career, Barner has totaled 317 rushing yards and three touchdowns to go along with 127 receiving yards.
The former Oregon standout would likely be the No. 3 or No. 4 running back in Buffalo with his primary contributions coming on special teams.
Veterans LeSean McCoy and Chris Ivory are the top two backs on the Bills' depth chart, meaning Barner will compete for a roster spot with the likes of Taiwan Jones, Marcus Murphy, Travaris Cadet and Aaron Green if Buffalo signs him.
