Christian Kirksey's world tour has landed in Western New York.
The free-agent linebacker is visiting the Buffalo Bills on Friday, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported.
Kirksey was cut by the Cleveland Browns this week but has not been without interest from other NFL teams. The 27-year-old LB has already met with the Raiders on Wednesday and visited the Packers on Thursday.
According to Rapoport, Kirksey's tour might not stop in Buffalo, as other organizations around the league are interested.
In six seasons in Cleveland, Kirksey was a reliable tackler in the middle of the Browns' defense, logging 286 tackles over the 2016 and 2017 seasons. But the linebacker has played just nine games over the past two years due to hamstring and chest injuries.
Buffalo seems already set at linebacker with young hotshots Tremaine Edmunds and Matt Milano manning the middle -- fellow '19 Bills backer Lorenzo Alexander is retiring and Julian Stanford is an unrestricted free agent -- but the Bills are doing their due diligence anyway, getting a head start on evaluating available players before the new league year opens and the market is flooded with talent.
