The Buffalo Bills signed a big name to their practice squad today.

The Bills added linebacker Greg Lloyd Jr., son of the five-time Pro Bowler for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Lloyd spent training camp with the Indianapolis Colts, who the Bills play Sunday in Lucas Oil Stadium.

The Philadelphia Eagles drafted Lloyd out of Connecticut in the seventh round in 2011 and traded him to the Colts three months ago along with linebacker Moise Fokou for cornerback Kevin Thomas and a conditional 2013 draft choice.

To make room for Lloyd, the Bills released offensive lineman Reggie Stephens.
