Ruled out for wild-card round Hairston (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's AFC wild-card game against the Jaguars, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that Hairston is considered "week-to-week" due to an ankle injury he sustained during Sunday's 35-8 win over the Jets on Sunday. The rookie first-rounder won't be available for the Bills' wild-card game but could return for the divisional round should Buffalo beat Jacksonville this Sunday. Hairston started in three of 11 regular-season games in his rookie campaign and accumulated 18 tackles (14 solo) and five pass defenses (two interceptions).

Unlikely to return Sunday Hairston (ankle) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest against the Jets.

Impact Hairston sustained an ankle injury in the second half, and he's now unlikely to return to action in Week 18. In his absence, Christian Benford and Tre'Davious White will continue to operate as the team's primary options at cornerback versus New York.

Impact This will be Hairston's second career start -- he previously got the nod Week 10 against Miami, when he logged one tackle and an interception while Benford was sidelined due to a groin issue. The rookie has, however, gotten plenty of reps since making his NFL debut Week 8, as he has typically logged a defensive snap share of around 50 percent. The conditions for Sunday's contest include frigid temperatures and possible snow, so it wouldn't be surprising if both squads go to the run game more often than usual.

Cleared to play Week 13 Hairston (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Impact Hairston was concussed in last Thursday night's loss to the Texans, but the added rest allowed him to clear the concussion protocol. The first-round rookie cornerback has appeared in five games this season, producing three tackles (two solo) and three pass breakups, including a pair of interceptions, across 175 defensive snaps.

Full participant Thursday Hairston (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Hairston sustained a concussion in the Bills' loss to the Texans last Thursday, and was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. The upgrade to full participation means the first-round rookie has cleared the league's concussion protocol and should be good to go for Sunday's game.

NOVEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Wednesday Hairston (concussion) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact The 2025 first-round pick from Kentucky sustained a concussion in the Bills' Week 12 loss to the Texans, so it's no surprise that he's limited at Wednesday's practice. Hairston must clear the NFL's five-step protocol in order to play in Sunday's matchup against the Steelers. If he's unable to do so, expect Ja'Marcus Ingram to have an expanded role as Buffalo's top reserve outside corner.

Placed in concussion protocol Hairston was placed in the concussion protocol Friday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Hairston apparently sustained the concussion in Thursday night's loss to the Texans. He'll have 10 days to try and get ready for Buffalo's Week 13 contest with the Steelers. Since making his season debut in Week 8, Hairston has produced three tackles (two solo) and three pass breakups, including two interceptions, on 58 percent of the defensive snaps across five contests.
