Over the last two days, Tim Graham of The Buffalo News twice reported that he'd heard the name of Green Bay Packers right tackle Bryan Bulaga connected to the Buffalo Bills in free agency.
If the Bills were, in fact, interested in Bulaga's services, they'll need to begin searching elsewhere, as Ian Rapoport of NFL.com reports that Bulaga is on the verge of re-signing with the Packers.
The #Packers are expected to keep OT Bryan Bulaga, source says. They are closing in on a deal. High priority for them.

The oft-injured Bulaga, 26, could have either supplanted Seantrel Henderson as the Bills' right tackle, or shifted inside to guard as a potential starter there, as well. Instead, he'll continue blocking for the best quarterback in the world, while the offensive line-needy Bills will continue their search for help. (And that search won't include Mike Iupati, either.)
