With 538 rushing yards and six touchdowns on 152 attempts last season, he had almost equal production to Colts starter Joe Addai. Rhodes, 30, started four games last season when Addai was sidelined by injuries.
Rhodes, 30, has enjoyed a solid eight-year NFL career despite being undrafted out of tiny Midwestern State. An 1,100-yard rusher as a rookie, Rhodes started all 16 regular season games for Indianapolis during its 2006 Super Bowl-winning season.
The Bills began seeking a free-agent running back long before the NFL announced a three-game conduct suspension for starter Marshawn Lynch and backup Fred Jackson began boycotting the offseason workout program because of unhappiness with his contract.
Fred Taylor (New England) and Kevin Jones (Chicago) signed with other teams. Minnesota's Maurice Hicks and Houston's Cecil Sapp, who also plays fullback, have visited but weren't signed.
