T.J. Yeldon - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Bills' free agency needs handcuffed by spending limitations

The Buffalo Bills have little money to spend after placing an emphasis on retaining their own pending free agents before the market opens

MARCH 12, 2021 • Associated Press

Infrequent contributor Yeldon only suited up for three regular-season games in 2020, rushing 10 times for 70 yards and catching just one pass for 22 yards, which went for a touchdown.

Impact Yeldon nearly matched his entire regular-season total in the AFC Championship Game, where he picked up 56 yards from scrimmage on seven touches while serving as a change-of-pace option for Devin Singletary. Yeldon will turn 28 in October and has never lived up to his second-round draft status, but he has a good set of hands and has figured out a way to provide occasional value. If he re-signs with the Bills -- he's an unrestricted free agent this offseason -- he'll have a similar depth role behind Singletary and Zack Moss.

Ravens RB Ingram inactive for divisional playoff at Buffalo

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram is listed inactive for the team’s AFC divisional-round playoff game at the Buffalo Bills

JANUARY 17, 2021 • Associated Press

In line for No. 2 role Coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Yeldon will work as Devin Singletary's backup in Saturday's AFC divisional-round game against the Ravens, Nick Wojton of USA Today reports.

Impact Yeldon was a healthy scratch for last week's wild-card win over the Colts. Zack Moss suffered a postseason-ending ankle injury during that game, opening the door for Yeldon to take on a larger role for the rest of playoffs. Yeldon logged just 42 offensive snaps and 11 touches for 92 yards and a touchdown over three games during the regular season, and he hasn't taken the field since Week 5. Meanwhile, the Bills elevated Antonio Williams from the practice squad to add backfield depth. Yeldon is expected to run ahead of Williams, but it adds ambiguity to the former's situation.

Inactive for Saturday Yeldon (coach's decision) is inactive for Saturday's wild-card matchup against Indianapolis.

Impact While Yeldon was previously on the Bills' reserve/COVID-19 list, he is now healthy but still will not play in Saturday's game. The running back is simply not as much of a factor compared to teammates Devin Singletary and Zack Moss.

Activated from COVID-19 list Yeldon (illness) has been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Impact Yeldon will provide the Bills with added backfield depth as Saturday's playoff opener against the Colts approaches, but he's clearly behind Devin Singletary and Zack Moss in the team's running back pecking order.

Healthy scratch Sunday Yeldon (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game at Arizona.

Impact The 27-year-old sat out Week 9 due to a back injury, and he's inactive again this week despite being recovered from the injury. Even when he is active, Yeldon is unlikely to be much of a factor while Devin Singletary and Zack Moss remain healthy.
