Re-signs with Buffalo The Bills re-signed Mathis to a one-year contract Monday.

Impact Mathis spent most of the 2025 season on the Bills' practice squad but did appear in six regular-season contests, logging 13 tackles (four solo) across 120 defensive snaps. He'll compete for a job on Buffalo's defensive line this summer.

Practices in full Thursday Mathis (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact Mathis has missed the last two games with a shoulder injury after being signed to the active roster Nov. 5. The return to full practice participation is a strong indication that the rotational defensive tackle will be able to take the field for Sunday's matchup with the Steelers.

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

Impact The Alabama product has missed the Bills' last two games due to a shoulder injury, but Wednesday's limited session could be an indication he's nearing a return. Mathis likely needs to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday to avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.

NOVEMBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Not yet ready to return Mathis (shoulder) is inactive for Thursday's Week 12 matchup against Houston.

Impact Mathis missed Sunday's win against Tampa Bay due to a shoulder issue. He was limited in practice both Tuesday and Wednesday this week, but he's not yet able to return to game action. Mathis began the campaign on IR due to an unrelated calf injury, and he's played in just three games so far this season.

Impact The 27-year-old logged back-to-back limited sessions to end the Bills' week of practice, giving himself a chance to return in the Week 12 contest. If active Thursday night, Mathis will likely operate as one of Buffalo's top reserve interior defensive linemen.

NOVEMBER 19, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Tuesday Mathis (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice.

Impact Mathis was unable to suit up for Sunday's Week 11 win over the Bucs, but he appears to have a chance to return for Thursday night against the Texans. Mathis has logged 52 defensive snaps across three appearances this season.

NOVEMBER 18, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Won't play vs. Buccaneers Mathis (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Mathis played a season-high 21 defensive snaps in Week 10 at Miami, but he'll sit out in Week 11 with a shoulder injury. His absence could open up additional reps on the defensive line for veteran Jordan Phillips.
