The Buffalo Bills lost a key player in Damien Harris.
That’s why plenty of people speculated that they could go after Leonard Fournette, who’s still a free agent and looking to get back into the league.
However, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the Bills won’t work out “Lombardi Lenny” or host him for a visit as of now.
Free-agent RB Leonard Fournette has interest from multiple teams, but he isn’t visiting the #Bills (or anyone else) today.
“Lombardi Lenny” is in great shape and will be ready to help someone down the stretch.

The insider states that Fournette is in great shape and has drawn interest from multiple teams.
Fournette spent last year with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but struggled with inefficiency and wound up ceding plenty of touches.
He’s big and physical, but he looked slightly overweight last season, raising plenty of questions about his ability to dominate and stay in the league for much longer.
But Fournette has vowed to be back and has reportedly slimmed down, looking in the best shape of his career and being ready to embrace whichever role is given.
The market for veteran running backs hasn’t exactly been good lately.
Ezekiel Elliott could barely get a contract with the New England Patriots, and it took a Nick Chubb injury for Kareem Hunt to get another chance with the Cleveland Browns.
But with injuries mounting up and multiple teams playing better than originally expected, it wouldn’t be far-fetched to think that the former Jacksonville Jaguars standout running back could find his way back to the league.
As for being able to make a big impact or even earn the starting job, that remains to be seen.
