  • Bills' Kaiir Elam: Ready for next step?

    Elam, who missed most of the 2023 regular season due to an ankle injury and coaching decisions, finished with 14 total tackles over three regular-season games.

    Elam did appear in both of the Bills' playoff games, though he was limited to special teams in the divisional-round loss to the Chiefs. So far in his young career, Elam's output in two NFL seasons hasn't come close to matching his first-round status, but the Bills had to let several secondary members move on this season and will likely spend one of their high picks on receiver, so Elam may be earmarked for a more prominent role in 2024 even if he's not a starter just yet. Some comments from team brass in the offseason have indicated the Bills are hopeful Elam is ready to make that jump in performance.

  • Bills' Kaiir Elam: Getting close to return

    Elam (ankle) was a full participant on Tuesday's practice estimate.

    Elam has been practicing with the team since he was designated to return from IR on Dec. 6, which has the second-year pro currently 13 days into his 21-day practice window. With his window getting closer to an end, assuming he's healthy enough to play, Elam has a good chance of returning Saturday against the Chargers.

  • Bills' Kaiir Elam: Won't play Week 14

    Elam (ankle) will not be activated from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.

    Elam resumed practicing Wednesday, but Buffalo isn't yet ready to fully activate him from IR. If Elam isn't activated within his 21-day practice window, he will be forced to remain on IR for the rest of the season. His next chance to return to the lineup will come Week 15 against the Cowboys.

  • Bills' Kaiir Elam: Practicing again

    The Bills announced Wednesday that Elam (ankle) has been designated to return from injured reserve, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.

    Head coach Sean McDermott labeled Elam day-to-day and said the defensive back's status for Sunday's game against the Chiefs has yet to be determined. The 2022 first-round pick was thrust into a starting role Weeks 5 and 6 before being limited to special teams Week 7 and then landing on IR. Once fully cleared to return to the 53-man roster, Elam could contribute as a rotational cornerback.

  • Bills' Kaiir Elam: Placed on injured reserve

    The Bills placed Elam (ankle) on injured reserve Thursday.

    Elam was inactive the first four weeks of the season before stepping in as a starter in Weeks 5 and 6 following injuries in Buffalo's secondary. Elam then played only special teams in Week 7 before missing last week and now going to injured reserve, where he'll be required to miss at least the next four contests.
