Gilliam has not missed one game and plays a crucial role blocking for the Bills’ offense to succeed in the run game. Buffalo has the No. 1 rushing offense in the NFL as it enters Week 15. His presence as a run blocker also helped running back James Cook III have three consecutive, 1,000-plus rushing yard seasons.

Off the field, the fullback is dedicated to his community and is a consistent face at Buffalo Bills events. Gilliam participated in the Crucial Catch Family Fun Night, Unified Flag Football clinics and a visit to the VA hospital on Veteran’s Day. For the NFL’s My Cause My Cleats campaign, Gilliam represented the American Cancer Society.
