Orchard Park, N.Y. • The Buffalo Bills have signed offensive tackle J.J. Unga off the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad.

The move Wednesday was made with the Bills (4-7) entering their bye weekend off.

At 6-foot-5 and 320 pounds, Unga was first signed by the Ravens as an undrafted rookie free agent out of Midwestern State, where he earned first-team Lone Star Conference honors last season.

The Bills had an open roster spot after releasing third-year cornerback Justin Rogers on Tuesday.

Buffalo is off until hosting the Atlanta Falcons on Dec. 1 in the Bills' annual "home" game at Toronto.
