The Bills placed Hancock (hamstring) on injured reserve Friday.
Hancock likely suffered his hamstring injury in the Bills' Week 2 win over the Lions. The issue appears to be significant, leading the team to move Hancock to IR. The defensive back will need to miss at least four games before becoming eligible to return to the Bills' active roster. The team signed Greg Dortch from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding move.
