Bills to re-sign Hamlin. Buffalo also adds defensive tackle Ogunjobi to 1-year deal, AP source says

Safety Damar Hamlin is returning to Buffalo, and the Bills also continued restocking their their defensive front by agreeing to sign tackle Larry Ogunjobi

MARCH 12, 2025 • Associated Press

Steady in starting role Over 14 regular-season games in 2024, Rapp (hip) recorded 82 tackles (48 solo), two interceptions and a forced fumble.

Impact Rapp was stuck on the depth chart behind former All-Pro Jordan Poyer and former Pro-Bowler Micah Hyde in 2023, but with their departures, Rapp was called on to be a regular starter in 2024. He played relatively well on a per-snap basis, but the time he missed due to injury kept him from making any huge waves in terms of raw stat totals. He's set to return with Buffalo in 2025, and whether he's a starter again next season could depend largely on whether the Bills offer a new contract to teammate Damar Hamlin during the offseason.

Impact Rapp's absence will be a notable blow for Buffalo's secondary, a development which will likely require Cole Bishop to step up as a starter at safety alongside Damar Hamlin. Elsewhere for the Bills' defense, Christian Benford remains in the concussion protocol and missed Friday's practice due to personal reasons. Taron Johnson (neck/shoulder) and Matt Milano (hamstring/elbow), meanwhile, upgraded to full practice sessions.

Doesn't practice Thursday Rapp (hip) did not participate in Thursday's practice.

Impact Rapp injured his hip during the Bills' divisional-round win against the Ravens, which has prevented him from participating in the first two practices of the week. A DNP on Friday wouldn't necessarily rule him out for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs, but participating in at least a limited capacity would indicate that he is progressing in his recovery. If Rapp is ultimately ruled out for Sunday's game, Cole Bishop would be the top candidate to start at safety next to Damar Hamlin.

Misses Wednesday's practice Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Rapp (hip) will not practice and remains day-to-day, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Rapp is dealing with a hip injury that forced him to depart Sunday's divisional-round win over the Ravens after playing just 33 percent of defensive snaps. The starting safety will have two more opportunities to upgrade his involvement at practice ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game at Kansas City, but if Rapp can't get healthy in time to face the Chiefs, Cole Bishop will likely be called upon to start alongside Damar Hamlin.

Bills finally make it back to AFC title game, where their playoff nemesis awaits in Kansas City

After four years, plenty of playoff heartbreak and an offseason roster purge of leadership and skill, the Buffalo Bills are finally returning to the AFC championship game

JANUARY 20, 2025 • Associated Press

Considered day-to-day Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that Rapp is considered day-to-day with a hip injury, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Impact The veteran safety from Washington exited the Bills' divisional round win over the Ravens due to a hip injury, and McDermott's comments Monday suggest he's got a chance to return for Sunday's AFC Championship game in Kansas City. Rapp's practice participation throughout the week is likely to offer the best insight into whether he can return in time for Sunday's contest. If he's unable to go, expect Cole Bishop to start alongside Damar Hamlin in Buffalo's secondary.

Done for night Rapp (hip) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's AFC divisional-round matchup with Baltimore.

Impact Rapp suffered a hip injury in the first half while making a tackle on Lamar Jackson and he will now be forced to sit out the remainder of the game. In his place, Cole Bishop will continue to operate as the team's primary strong safety versus the Ravens.

JANUARY 13, 2025 • Associated Press

Past neck issue Rapp (neck) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots.

Impact Rapp was limited throughout the Bills' week of practice after playing through his neck injury in the Week 17 win over the Jets, and it now appears he'll continue to play through the issue Sunday. Buffalo has already clinched the No. 2 seed in the AFC playoffs and is expected to rest its starters for most of the Week 18 contest; however, head coach Sean McDermott stated Rapp will still play "a bit" Sunday, per Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com.

JANUARY 3, 2025 • ROTOWIRE

Still dealing with neck injury Rapp (neck) was a limited participant at the Bills' walk-through practice Wednesday, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

Impact Rapp was able to play through his neck issue during Sunday's game versus the Jets, so it's likely Buffalo is simply taking a cautious approach ahead of Week 18. If he's able to log a full practice Thursday or Friday, he would likely go into the weekend without an injury designation.

Set to return Sunday Rapp (neck) is active for Sunday's Week 17 battle against the Jets.

Impact Rapp missed each of Buffalo's past two games due to a neck issue, but he'll be able to take the field against New York. His return comes at a good time for the Bills, as fellow safety Damar Hamlin (ribs) is inactive Sunday. Cole Bishop will likely start alongside Rapp in the Week 17 matchup.
