Viewed as day-to-day

Analysis: Edmunds was originally feared to have suffered a more significant injury when he left Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Chargers with a knee injury, so Eberflus' update is a positive one. Still, the linebacker's practice participation will be worth monitoring as the Bears prepare to face the Saints in Week 9.

Questionable to return
Edmunds is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Chargers due to a knee injury.
Analysis: Edmunds went down in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup and appeared to be in considerable pain, but he briefly returned to the game afterward. However, it's possible he aggravated the issue, and it's unclear whether he'll be available down the stretch. Since the Bears are trailing by a wide margin in the second half, it wouldn't be surprising to see the team exercise caution to preserve his health in the long run.

Analysis: Edmunds returned to practice after sitting out Wednesday and Thursday with separate groin and heel injuries. The starting middle linebacker has played a massive role for Buffalo this season, recording 62 tackles, one sack and two passes defended over seven games, so his potential absence would be a big hit for the team's defense. If Edmunds is either sidelined or limited against Minnesota, expect Tyrel Dodson to take on a larger role alongside Matt Milano.

Edmunds (groin/heel) didn't practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Edmunds played every defensive snap and recorded 11 tackles during the team's Week 9 loss to the Jets, but he appears to have picked up groin and heel injuries during the contest as well.

The middle linebacker then got his hand on a pass intended for wide receiver Robert Woods midway through the third quarter, leading to an interception for safety Jordan Poyer.

Analysis: Edmunds logged his second game of the season with double-digit stops, bringing his tackle total through 11 contests to 82 (49 solo). The standout middle linebacker continues to handle an every-down role in Buffalo's defense, and Week 15 he will get a chance to feast against Carolina's moribund offense led by Cam Newton, who has failed to log a single 200-yard passing game since reuniting with the franchise that drafted him.

Co-leads in tackles Thursday
Edmunds posted eight total tackles in Thursday's 31-6 win over the Saints.
Analysis: The middle linebacker returned from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury and looked like he hadn't missed a beat, as he was around the play all day as the Saints futilely tried to run the ball to the tune of 44 net rushing yards. Edmunds will be counted on even more to lead a top-notch defense that just lost its most valuable defender, as start corner Tre'Davious White suffered a season-ending knee injury in the win.

Misses Wednesday's session
Edmunds did not practice Wednesday due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: Edmunds, as usual, played all 57 of the team's defensive snaps in the Week 9 upset loss to Jacksonville, but he must have tweaked something along the way. Edmunds leads the Bills in tackles by a good margin with 54 stops through eight games, so you can bet the team would like to see the middle linebacker practicing on some level Thursday or Friday as it tries to get off a schneid that's seen the AFC East favorites lose two of the last three contests.

Analysis: As great of a day it was for the Bills in the 35-0 romp, Edmunds' trouble with the heat held him to only 57 percent of the defensive snaps and three total tackles.

The Bills exercised Edmunds' $12.7 million fifth-year option for 2022 on Monday, Albert Breer of TheMMQB.com reports.
Analysis: Edmunds will still be just 23 years old while playing out the 2021 season, and considering his production relative to age, picking up his fifth-year option was likely a no-brainer for the Bills.

Edmunds (shoulder) is absent from the Bills' final injury report ahead of Monday's matchup with the Chiefs.
Analysis: Edmunds popped up on the injury report after practicing in limited fashion Friday. However, it looks like the Bills were simply erring on the side of caution with their starting middle linebacker.

Edmunds was listed as a limited participant Friday due to a shoulder issue, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: A shoulder issue kept Edmunds out of the Week 2 game in Miami, but he's played through it since. It's unclear if his limited participation Friday is related, or if it is, if he was given a lighter load for precautionary reasons in what's been a busy week for the Bills.

Highest tackle total of 2020
Edmunds totaled 12 tackles in Sunday's win over the Raiders while playing all 74 defensive snaps.
Analysis: Edmunds looks like he's past the shoulder injury that slightly derailed the early part of his season, producing his biggest tackle output of the season and matching the highest he's ever put up in a single game as a pro. If teammate Matt Milano's pectoral injury keeps him out of further action, Edmunds would be even more likely to post continued elevated tackle totals.

Earns high praise
Coach Sean McDermott mentioned Edmunds as a player who's exceeded expectations throughout training camp, Dante Lasting of the Bills' official site reports. Said the coach, "To watch his maturity and growth over the course of the offseason on the field and off the field. He seems very comfortable in his own whereabouts in terms of what we're doing scheme-wise and is very confident as a leader in our locker room. The interesting part about that is we haven't really been around one another [this offseason]. So really a lot of the credit goes to him and his support system at home."
Analysis: Edmunds is entering his third year with the team and will play all three downs in a defense he's comfortable with. After posting 121 and 115 tackles in his first two seasons, he seems like a sure bet -- assuming good health -- to post another triple-digit tackle season. Edmunds only recorded one turnover in 2019, so perhaps some of his hard work will get him back toward his four-turnover total from his 2018 rookie season.

Edmunds (hip) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Edmunds has been hampered by lingering hip soreness during training camp but seems well enough to practice. The hope is that the hip soreness won't cause the third-year pro to miss regular-season action, and, as of right now, it doesn't look like that will be the case.

Still limited
Edmunds was limited during Monday's practice session due to lingering hip soreness, Kimberly Jones of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Jones was told that the third-year linebacker would have played a full game had it been an NFL Sunday, so it's expected Edmunds will build up his reps as the week goes on.

Back to work
Edmunds (hip) returned to practice Sunday after sitting out the last couple of days, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Linebacker is one of the few positions where the Bills lack major depth, but it sounds like their key middle man will be fine moving forward.

Sits out Friday's practice
Edmunds (hip) didn't participate in Friday's practice, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.
Analysis: Edmunds is the centerpiece of last year's second-ranked defense, as he has piled up a combined 236 tackles, 3.5 sacks and 21 pass breakups over his first two seasons in the league. There's no real replacement for the 22-year-old's talents, but for the time being, Tyler Matakevich is next in line for first-team reps.

Back-to-back 100-tackle seasons
Edmunds posted 115 total tackles to go with 1.5 sacks, nine passes defensed and an interception in 2019.
Analysis: Edmunds is a true three-down linebacker, almost never leaving the field and possessing more size and athleticism than most middle linebackers in the league. He's a smart player with NFL bloodlines -- his father and two brothers have all played in the league -- but he still has a little bit to learn, as evidenced by the low turnover total and the fact that he was out of position on a key play in the team's playoff loss to the Texans. He should be a mainstay on the Bills' strong defense for years…read more

Nine tackles in loss
Edmunds posted nine tackles (five solo) in Saturday's 24-17 loss to the Patriots.
Analysis: Edmunds has made at least seven stops in each of his past four games, but this was his largest output in that span. He'll try to finish the regular season with a strong Week 17 effort, though we'll note that the Bills already have the No. 5 seed locked, thus some key players might not play a full game in the finale.

Racks up another eight tackles
Edmunds recorded eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Steelers.
Analysis: Edmunds is now up to 105 tackles on the season and has become a real strength of the Bills' top-5 scoring defense. The second-year linebacker continues to put up consistent tackle numbers and has proven to be effective in pass coverage as well with nine passes defensed on the season.

Nabs first INT of season
Edmunds recorded eight tackles (six solo), one defended pass and one interception during Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Edmunds intercepted a pass thrown by Lamar Jackson midway through the second quarter after the ball bounced out of Willie Snead's hands. The 2018 first-round pick once again showcased his remarkable versatility during the Week 14 loss. As a three-down linebacker with a steady floor as a run stopper and upside in coverage, Edmunds is a valuable fantasy asset in IDP formats.

Versatile in win
Edmunds tallied 12 tackles, 0.5 sacks and a pass breakup in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: The second-year pro notched his first sack of the season last week, and he helped take down the quarterback again. Edmunds also matched his career high for tackles, as he produced an identical mark in Week 17 against the Dolphins last season. Being just 21 years old, Edmunds has an encouraging career trajectory, and he's already a steady IDP asset for fantasy purposes.

First sack of season
Edmunds recorded three tackles (one solo), a sack and a pass defensed across 70 defensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Browns.
Analysis: While Edmunds saw his lowest tackle count of the season Sunday, he also managed to record his first sack of the year, which gave the Bills a safety. He has played in 100 percent of the defensive snaps this season and will look to keep that trend going Sunday against the Dolphins.

Tackle volume continues
Edmunds had nine total tackles for the second straight week in Sunday's win over Washington.
Analysis: Edmunds continues to be a strong source of tackles as the middle defender in a strong defense, and a guy who almost never leaves the field. Although he's still looking for his first sack or interception -- with his athleticism, it's a surprise Edmunds hasn't show more in these two areas -- he's up to 61 tackles on the season and could end up posting 120-plus tackles in each his first two NFL campaigns.
