Tyler Bass - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Busy in preseason opener Bass went 3-for-4 on field-goal tries and made both extra-point attempts in Buffalo's preseason win over the Panthers on Saturday.

Impact Bass is back at full health after recovering from a pelvic injury that cost him the entire 2025 season. The Bills don't even have another kicker on the roster at this point, so Bass is the main guy for what should be a productive offense led by superstar Josh Allen and a new offensive-minded head coach in Joe Brady.

Recovered from injury Bass noted Thursday that he's fully healthy after recovering from a pelvic injury that cost him the entire 2025 season, Matt Parrino of Syracuse.com reports.

Impact Bass acknowledged that the injury entailed a difficult recovery, noting "it was hard to get out of bed for a couple weeks," while adding "when I started kicking, we started with baby steps- 20-yarders, 10-yarders, and then working from there. It wasn't until midway through OTAs where I started feeling like myself again." Now that the 29-year is back on the field, he's positioned to reclaim his role as the Bills' top kicker, a context that puts Bass back on the fantasy radar, provided he remains healthy.

Impact Bass has handled the Bills' kicking duties since being drafted in 2020, but the team was forced to go with Matt Prater and Michael Badgley in 2025, while Bass never came close to suiting up due to a sports hernia, ultimately undergoing surgery in November. Neither Prater nor Badgley is with the team any longer, so it looks like the Bills are comfortable with Bass's prognosis to continue counting on him being their main guy throughout Josh Allen's prime seasons. Bass could be a good target in drafts due to the fact that he has no stats to show off from last season, plus the Bills have a new head coach with an offensive mind in Joe Brady. And there's the fact that Allen advances the football with the best of them.

Takes pay cut for 2026 Bass (pelvis) agreed to a contract restructure with the Bills on Tuesday, Sal Maiorana of Democrat and Chronicle reports.

Impact Bass, who missed Buffalo's entire 2025 campaign due to a pelvic injury that required surgery, was set to make $4.9 million during the 2026 season. However, he's since agreed to a contract restructure that saves the Bills roughly $1.92 million in cap space for next year. Bass is set to remain Buffalo's top placekicker for 2026, having converted 84.5 percent of his career field-goal attempts, including 69.6 percent from 50-plus yards, since entering the league in 2020.
