Inside The Bills

Rinehart likes how it panned out

When Chad Rinehart was signed off the Jets practice squad by Buffalo midway through the 2010 season he wasn’t sure how long it was going to last with the Bills. Now a year and a half later he’s an interior linemen capable of starting and as a restricted free agent  feels he’s found a group of linemates and a team that feels like a fit.

“In 2010 not being with the team the first six games or so you’re wondering if you’ll be around long,” said Rinehart. ”So a year later getting a chance to start I feel I’ve shown them what I’m capable of. At the same time I still think I can improve and get better.”

Rinehart is one of the three restricted free agents profiled on our home page at Buffalobills.com.
