Terrel Bernard - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Questionable for divisional round Bernard (calf) will practice in a limited fashion Thursday and is listed as questionable for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against the Broncos, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic...

Impact The Baylor product has missed Buffalo's last two contests due to a calf injury, but following a week of limited practice sessions, he's got a chance to return Saturday. Bernard is an integral part of the Bills' linebacker corps, recording 65 total tackles and three passes defensed, including one interception, across 12 appearances this season. If active for the divisional round, Bernard will likely operate as Buffalo's top middle linebacker.

Back at practice Tuesday Bernard (calf) was listed as a limited participant in Tuesday's walkthrough practice.

Impact Bernard was unable to practice in the week leading up to the Bills' wild-card game against the Jaguars on Sunday, so his ability to log a limited session -- albeit in a walkthrough -- is a sign that the fourth-year linebacker is progressing in his recovery from a calf injury. Bernard will have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's AFC divisional game against the Broncos.

Impact Bernard previously missed Week 18 due to his calf injury, and McDermott has yet to offer a clear estimate for the starting linebacker's recovery timeframe. For Sunday's playoff contest against Jacksonville, both Dorian Williams and Joe Andreessen will be candidates to see increased work on defense in Bernard's absence.

Will not practice Wednesday Bernard (calf) will not participate in Wednesday's practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Bernard did not play in the Week 18 win over the Jets, but that is likely just because the Bills rested most of their starting players. The linebacker sustained his calf injury in the first half of the Week 17 loss to the Eagles and did not return to the contest. If the defensive captain wants to suit up for Sunday's playoff game against the Jaguars, he will have to increase his participation level in at least one of the remaining two practice sessions.

Limited to begin Week 16 Bernard (elbow) was limited in Wednesday's walk-through practice.

Impact Bernard wasn't able to practice in any capacity prior to being ruled out for Buffalo's win over the Patriots in Week 15, so he's healthier to begin preparations for Sunday's road game against the Browns. If Bernard is able to get back on the field versus Cleveland, he'll be a fringe fantasy asset in IDP formats.

Could return Sunday Bernard (elbow) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Bernard has missed Buffalo's last two games due to an elbow injury, but following limited practice sessions Wednesday and Thursday, he's got a chance to play Sunday. The 26-year-old has appeared in 10 games for the Bills this season, recording 56 total tackles and three passes defensed, including one interception. If he's sidelined for the third consecutive game in Week 15, expect Shaq Thompson to operate as the team's top middle linebacker.

Impact Bernard seems to be making incremental progress, as he hadn't practiced or played since sustaining an elbow injury in Buffalo's Week 12 loss to the Texans. How he fares Thursday when the Bills hold an actual practice could be a key indicator regarding Bernard's potential availability for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
