Running back Chris Ivory has agreed to sign with the Buffalo Bills after being made a free agent by the Jacksonville Jaguars in February.

Ivory, who turns 30 this month, has signed a two-year deal that is likely to see him act as backup to LeSean McCoy.

Ivory was released by the Jags before the end of his contract, having averaged less than four yards per carry, which freed him to sign before the free agent market opens on March 14.

The veteran made just 821 yards and four touchdowns on 229 carries during two seasons in Jacksonville, after signing on a five-year deal.

Ivory's only spell as a starter came at the New York Jets between 2014 and 2015, during which he ran for almost 1,900 yards.
