Buffalo will sign Forrest to a one-year contract, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Forrest took a back seat in Washington's defensive backfield in 2024, totaling just 70 defensive snaps over 10 regular-season games after playing 1,126 defensive snaps in his 22 games prior. His shortest path to snaps with the Bills to start 2025 will probably be with the special teams unit.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Forest barely played in 2021 as a rookie fifth-round pick, but he became a crucial part of Washington's defense last year after moving into the starting free safety spot midseason, ultimately recording 88 tackles and a team-high four interceptions across 17 games (11 starts). His per-snap tackle rate wasn't far behind strong safety Kamren Curl's, and while Curl is the favorite to make more tackles this season, Forrest is back as a starter and also could have IDP value.
