“He has a knack for finding the football” – Joe Brady on Bills new pickup Amani Hooker Mat Mlodzinski News10NBC Buffalo Bills safety Amani Hooker ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WHEC) – The Buffalo Bills spoke about new addition Amani Hooker who arrived to town early Wednesday morning. The Bills made one move on Tuesday’s trade deadline, sending a second round pick to the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a fifth rounder and safety Amani Hooker. The thought is that Hooker can boost a struggling secondary, namely the safety group that features a young player in Cole Bishop, and Damar Hamlin. The main thing about Hookier? He’s got a nose for the football, leading the NFL heading into week 10 with five interceptions. “He has a knack for finding the football,” said Bills head coach Joe Brady. “Really savvy football player that can play a lot of different roles in the back end.” Brady also said Hooker is a veteran which could help him be ready to play as early as Sunday against the New York Jets . “He’s played a lot of football. Sometimes it’s about learning the terminology, said Brady. “I think these guys usually pick it up at a fast rate.” “I pride myself on being a pro. Being ready whenever my name is called no matter what,” said Hooker. Hooker isn’t just looking forward to potentially playing against the Jets, but some meaningful football in the postseason. “The opportunity here is tremendous,” said Hooker. “It’s a dream come true. I’ve always wanted to be in this position.” Of course the Bills are pretty stoked too, making a move to improve the team hours before the trade deadline ended. We’ll get the first look at the new safety on Sunday.
