The Buffalo Bills are in on free agent defensive end Ziggy Ansah, and they aren’t buying reports that they’re second in the running.
On Wednesday, reports emerged stating that the Seattle Seahawks were the clear frontrunners for Ansah’s services. Bills general manager Brandon Beane dismissed them as “garbage,” stating that Ansah’s representatives had assured him that his team remained in the running.
Brandon Beane on @1270TheFan on Z. Ansah: “We’re still in talks with him and his agent. Everything has been very good. All I’ll say about reports [Seattle is emerging as favorite] is I don’t buy into that garbage, especially when I consider where some of the sourcing comes from."

More from Beane: “I don’t know where it came from. Maybe it is fact. From the people I talked to that represent, they don’t see it as fact. Time will tell. … Certain people have been wrong more than they’re right and I think it’s a poor job that they’ve done."

Beane doesn’t appear very happy with Ian Rapoport, but he is correct that time will tell. The Seahawks would appear closer to contention than the Bills if that’s a consideration, but Buffalo is putting some building blocks in place themselves.
