Mecole Hardman didn't waste time to make a great first impression.
The three-time Super Bowl champion with the Kansas City Chiefs is the newest member of the Buffalo Bills.
On Sunday, he returned a kickoff after the game's opening score and went for 61 yards before being tackled past midfield.
That's a quick way to ingratiate yourself to the Bills Mafia.

How did Bills get Mecole Hardman?
The Bills signed wide receiver and return man Mecole Hardman to their practice squad on Monday, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
He was elevated for Sunday's game.
Hardman spent the summer with the Green Bay Packers but didn't make their final roster.
He's best known for his time with the Chiefs, where he was a three-time Super Bowl champion.

Hardman also has a Pro Bowl on his resume as a returner.
Offensively, Hardman is likely mostly viable on gadget plays and not as a full-time wide receiver.
"Just being able to have that experience -- I actually have gone to the end game -- and having to win it, I think that goes a long way, especially for the younger guys to see that," Hardman told The Athletic's Matt Schneidman after he signed with the Packers, delivering a message that could work with a new team, too. "I'm glad I can give that experience to them and let them know what it took and what it's going to take.”
