  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Mulling retirement

    Hyde is considering retiring from football, Mark Gaughan of The Buffalo News reports. Hyde still hasn't made any concrete decision regarding his future in the league, though apparently retirement is a possibility. His current contract with the Bills is up in March, so he'll need to sign a new one at some point if he intends to play in 2024.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Missing Week 16

    Hyde (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Chargers. Even though the 32-year-old was able to log a week of limited practice sessions, head coach Sean McDermott told reporters that Hyde was unlikely to suit up Saturday, so it's no surprise that he's officially been ruled out. With Hyde missing another week, both Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamlin could see increased work in the Bills' secondary.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Ruled out for Week 15

    Hyde (neck) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Hyde is nursing a neck stinger suffered during Buffalo's win over the Chiefs in Week 14, an injury that could potentially require a multi-week absence. Coach Sean McDermott has also ruled out A.J. Epenesa (ribs) versus Dallas, so the Bills' defense will be down multiple key players against one of the NFL's top offenses.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Injured reserve may be in future

    Hyde, who suffered a neck stinger during Sunday's win against the Chiefs, is viewed as week-to-week while the Bills continue to gather information as to whether he'll require a stint on injured reserve, Jon Scott of Spectrum News 1 Buffalo reports. Hyde may be looking at a multi-week absence, as it appears Buffalo is still not certain how much time he may need to recover from his injury. Any long-term absence to Hyde would certainly be a blow to the Bills' secondary and likely move Taylor Rapp into a starting role at strong safety and move Damar Hamlin into a regular depth reserve role. It's perhaps worth noting that Hyde missed almost all of last season with a neck injury.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Could miss time

    Hyde is week-to-week after he suffered a stinger in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports. Hyde may be in danger of missing the Bills' Week 15 matchup with the Cowboys based on the week-to-week nature of his injury. More won't likely be known about his potential status for the game until the team begins releasing its practice reports later in the week.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Cleared for Sunday

    Hyde (neck/stinger) practiced fully Friday and is off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game in Philadelphia, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports. Hyde suffered the injury in last week's win over the Jets and was limited to begin the week, but he's now set to start in his usual safety spot. Fellow safety Taylor Rapp has already been ruled out for Week 12 with a neck injury, so Hyde's presence is key as he and longtime teammate Jordan Poyer try to slow Philadelphia's elite offense.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Won't play Monday

    Hyde (neck) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Broncos. Hyde was unable to participate in practice leading up to Week 10. Taylor Rapp took over for Hyde in Week 9 against the Bengals and should be in line to start at free safety alongside Jordan Poyer.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Ready to play at Washington

    Hyde (hamstring) was a full participant at practice Friday and does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game at the Commanders. Hyde picked up a hamstring injury during Buffalo's win versus Las Vegas in Week 2, but he's apparently already put it past him before the Bills' matchup at Washington in Week 3. He'll resume his regular starting role at safety next to Jordan Poyer.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Dealing with hamstring injury

    Hyde left Sunday's win over the Raiders early due to a hamstring injury. Hyde recorded five tackles (two solo) before exiting. The Bills were in command nearly all game long, so Hyde's departure may have been precautionary.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Limited at practice Thursday

    Hyde (back) was a limited participant at practice Thursday ahead of Monday night's Week 1 game at the Jets, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. The issue with his back apparently just cropped up within the last few days, but it's evidently not severe enough to keep Hyde off the field entirely. It's possible Buffalo is just playing things safe with the veteran Pro Bowler, who missed 15 full regular-season games and two postseason contests in 2022 due to a neck issue. However, if the back injury proves severe enough to keep him out Week 1, it could clear a path for Damar Hamlin to start.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Ruled out for wild-card round

    Hyde (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Dolphins, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports. Head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Hyde will not be available for this weekend's game versus Miami, and he will also remain out next week if the Bills advance. The safety has been on injured reserve since late September after sustaining a neck injury, and although his 21-day practice window has been opened, there's no guarantee he will return at any point in the postseason.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Undergoes successful surgery

    Hyde (neck) recently underwent successful surgery to repair a herniated disc and is facing a 6-to-9-month recovery timeline, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. After being placed on injured reserve Sept. 24, Hyde will miss the remainder of the season while he recovers from surgery, which is expected to stabilize his neck moving forward. The 31-year-old will likely be available for most of next year's training camp, if not all of it, barring any setbacks. In his absence, Damar Hamlin will continue to operate as the Bills' starting free safety.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Officially on IR

    Buffalo placed Hyde (neck) on its injured reserve list Saturday. Hyde is expected to miss the remainder of the 2022 season with a neck injury he sustained in Week 2, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. At the very least, he'll now be required to miss at least the next four weeks. With the Bills' other starting safety, Jordan Poyer (foot), now also dealing with an injury, safeties Jaquan Johnson and Damar Hamlin will be asked to take a major step up moving forward.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Ruled out for Week 3

    Hyde (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Miami, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Hyde didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday, so it's not surprising to see him ruled out. Jordan Poyer (foot) also could end up sitting out Week 3 after missing Thursday's practice, so Jaquan Johnson and Damar Hamlin are both on deck for increased roles against Miami's new-look passing attack that diced up Baltimore's secondary Week 2.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Leaves Monday's contest

    Hyde left Monday night's game against the Titans due to a neck injury, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. The Bills are blowing out the Titans, but it's going to come with a cost, as a handful of key players have suffered injuries throughout the night. Even if Hyde's injury is minor, there's almost no chance he'll be returning to such a lopsided game. Hyde's status for the Week 3 divisional battle in Miami is of greater importance for the team.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Big game in big win

    Hyde posted six tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's win over the Patriots. The interceptions put Hyde up to five on the season, tied with Jordan Poyer for the team lead. Both players sit inside the top 20 among safeties in standard IDP scoring, boosted by Buffalo's aggressive defense, one that focuses on trying to generate turnovers.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Ready to go for Week 2

    Hyde (neck) is not listed on the Bills' injury report ahead of Sunday's contest with the Dolphins, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Hyde was limited in practice Thursday and Friday with a neck injury, but he appears good to go for Sunday. The veteran safety registered six tackles and one pass defensed in the opener against the Steelers.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Clears concussion protocol

    Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Hyde has cleared the league's concussion protocol, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Hyde was a full participant in Thursday's practice, so it looks like he's all set to slot into his usual starting role at safety during Sunday's game against the Seahawks. His presence across from Jordan Poyer will be key as Buffalo looks to accomplish the tall task of slowing down Russell Wilson.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Out for Week 8

    Hyde (concussion) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Patriots, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports. Hyde obviously could not clear the concussion protocol in time, while Dean Marlowe and Jaquan Johnson will now see more work against New England. The Bills also have a few hybrid types who can help backfill Hyde's normal duties, though, to be clear, his loss is a notable one for a Buffalo defense that's already struggled at times in 2020.

  • Bills' Micah Hyde: Questionable for Sunday

    Hyde (concussion) did not practice for the third straight day Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots. Coach Sean McDermott hasn't ruled Hyde out yet, so we suppose he'll have one more shot to clear the final stage of the concussion protocol. The starting safety is familiar enough with the scheme that, if cleared, he could handle a full workload without any practice time.
