Ford, who signed with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent in 2018 and spent his first five seasons as a pro in Seattle, will turn down bigger money from another suitor to increase his chances of winning a Super Bowl with the Bills, Pelissero adds.

The 27-year-old DL appeared in all 17 games for the Seahawks last season (16 starts), and will look to bolster a Bills defense in the 2023-24 season alongside the likes of DE Von Miller, DT Ed Oliver, and S Jordan Poyer.
