Zion Logue, defensive tackle for the Buffalo Bills, seeks to secure a spot on the 53-man roster ahead of the upcoming season. After two years on the practice squad, Logue's development includes an increase in weight to bolster his effectiveness as a nose tackle. With the team's shift to a new defensive scheme under Jim Leonhard, Logue's performance in the offseason could determine his role in the league. Competing against players like Ed Oliver and Phidarian Mathis, Logue's challenge is to prove his worth in a crowded lineup of defensive linemen.
