Reports<\/a> indicate that the Bills hosted KC Concepcion on Friday. Although he played at Texas A&M, he fits the profile of a \u201clocal\u201d visit.<\/p>\n

Concepcion grew up in nearby Rochester, New York, and said during his NFL Combine media session that he watched the Bills growing up.<\/p>\n
