He signed a one-year contract, according to NFL.com.
Hodges, 26, is coming off the most productive season in his four-year NFL career. He was a starting inside linebacker for the San Francisco 49ers in their 3-4 front in 2016. He compiled 83 tackles, two pass breakups, two interceptions and a forced fumble in 15 appearances (12 starts).
Hodges also visited with the Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars and New York Giants before signing with the Bills.
He figures to be in the mix for a weak-side linebacker role in the Bills 4-3 defensive front.
Bills defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier was Hodges' head coach during his rookie year with the Minnesota Vikings.
To make room on the roster, the Bills released cornerback Charles Gaines.
