INJURIES

Questionable, expected to play Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Thompson (neck) will be listed as questionable for Sunday's wild-card round matchup against the Jaguars but is expected to play, Al...
Impact Thompson previously played through his neck injury in Week 17 before staying on the sideline in Week 18 to rest up for the playoffs. With middle linebacker Terrel Bernard (calf) already ruled out to face Jacksonville, the presence of starters Matt Milano and Thompson will be especially crucial for Buffalo's defense.

Bills' Super Bowl path begins at the surging Jaguars, who have won eight in a row

Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills won't have to go through Kansas City or Cincinnati to get to the Super Bowl
1 DAY AGO • Associated Press
Limited in practice Wednesday Thompson (neck) is listed as limited on Wednesday's estimated practice report.
Impact Thompson was limited in advance of Buffalo's loss to the Eagles in Week 17 due to his neck injury, but he was cleared to suit up for that game without being assigned an official injury designation. The veteran linebacker was then among starters who rested Week 18. Barring any setbacks in practice Thursday and/or Friday, Thompson can be expected to gain clearance for Sunday's wild-card round matchup on the road against Jacksonville.
2 DAYS AGO • ROTOWIRE
Modest first campaign in Buffalo Thompson tallied 56 tackles (33 solo), including 1.0 sacks, along with two defensed passes and a forced fumble over 12 regular-season contests in 2025-26.
Impact Thompson missed four games due to injury and didn't play Week 18 against the Jets for rest purposes, but he still doubled the six contests he logged over the previous two seasons combined. The veteran linebacker had 10 tackles Week 6 against Atlanta and nine stops Week 13 versus Pittsburgh, but otherwise he finished with six or fewer tackles in his other 10 appearances. Thompson should remain a key part of Buffalo's defense in the postseason and will then become a free agent following the campaign.

Good for Week 17 after full practice Thompson (neck) has avoided an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Impact Thompson was looking iffy for Sunday after being deemed a limited participant in practice both Wednesday and Thursday. However, he was able to log a full practice Friday and is set to suit up versus Philadelphia. Thompson played just 11 defensive snaps against Cleveland this past Sunday due to the neck issue and wasn't able to take the field in the second half, but it turns out the injury won't sideline him further.
DECEMBER 26, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Limited in Wednesday's walkthrough Thompson (neck) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.
Impact Thompson sustained a neck injury during the first quarter of the Bills' Week 16 win over the Browns, which prevented him from returning to the game. His ability to practice in a limited capacity -- albeit in a walkthrough -- indicates the veteran linebacker is day-to-day. Thompson would likely need to practice fully by Friday in order to avoid an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the Eagles.
DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Considered day-to-day Coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Thompson (neck) is considered day-to-day, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Impact Thompson was injured in the first quarter of Sunday's win over the Browns after playing a total of 12 snaps on defense and special teams. However, it sounds like he avoided a serious injury.

Bills defense overcomes deficiencies by continuing to come up big when it matters

DECEMBER 22, 2025 • Associated Press
Exits game with neck injury Thompson (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Browns.
Impact Thompson sustained the injury during the first quarter, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return to Sunday's game. Dorian Williams will likely step into a more prominent role in defense for as long as Thompson is out of the game.

Four tackles in TNF loss Thompson recorded four tackles (zero solo) in Buffalo's loss to Houston on Thursday night.
Impact Making his return from a hamstring injury suffered in Week 8, Thompson played 58 percent of the defensive snaps and saw another 11 snaps on special teams. With Terrel Bernard (elbow) looking at an extended absence, Thompson could be a candidate for increased action on defense. The veteran linebacker has recorded 32 tackles (19 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and two pass breakups across seven games this season.
NOVEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Full practice at walkthrough Thompson (hamstring) was listed as a full participant on Monday's estimated practice report.
Impact The Bills held a walkthrough Monday after beating the Bucs on Sunday, and the team is now on a short week ahead of Thursday night's date with the Texans. The 31-year-old veteran linebacker has been sidelined since Week 8.
NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Won't play Week 11 Thompson (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against Tampa Bay.
Impact The veteran linebacker was a full participant in practice Thursday and Friday. However, he has not progressed enough in his recovery from a hamstring injury to be cleared to return from a three-game absence. Thompson's next opportunity to play is Thursday against the Texans.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Could play Sunday Thompson (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers.
Impact Thompson fully participated in practice in both the Thursday and Friday sessions, a positive sign for the weakside linebacker's chances to suit up for Sunday's game. Prior to injuring his hamstring the veteran played in five games for the Bills where he logged 27 tackles (18 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and defensed two passes. If available for Sunday, Thompson will likely share rotational linebacker duties with other Bills defenders such as Matt Milano and Dorian Williams (groin).
NOVEMBER 14, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Practices in full Thompson (hamstring) returned to full practice participation Thursday.
Impact Thompson upgraded to full participation Thursday after being limited by a hamstring injury Wednesday, putting him on track to suit up Sunday against the Buccaneers. Thompson missed each of the Bills' last two games due to the hamstring injury, and he looks set to get back to playing a significant role in the Bills' linebacker corps.
NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Limited Wednesday Thompson (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Impact Thompson has missed two consecutive games with his hamstring injury, but getting in a limited practice Wednesday would suggest he has a chance to return this week versus Tampa Bay. Terrel Bernard and Matt Milano are healthy and soaked up the vast majority of the snaps at linebacker Week 10 against Miami.
NOVEMBER 13, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Ruled out for Week 10 Thompson (hamstring) won't play Sunday against the Dolphins, head coach Sean McDermott revealed Friday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Impact Thompson will miss a second consecutive game Sunday. His next chance to take the field will come in Week 11 against the Buccaneers.
