2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bishop put forth a solid rookie campaign while handling a rotational role behind Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamlin, recording 40 tackles (25 solo), two passes defensed and one forced fumble across 16 regular-season appearances. The 2024 second-round pick notably played 100 percent of defensive snaps during Buffalo's loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game with Rapp injured, leading the team with 10 tackles. Buffalo's decision to re-sign Hamlin on a one-year deal seemingly positions Bishop for another year in a No. 2 role, despite his flashes of brilliance as a rookie, but superior athleticism could be enough for the Utah product to elbow up the depth chart Year 2. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a four-year, $6.55 million contract with the Bills in June of 2024.
Past quad injury
Bishop (quadriceps) participated in team drills during Wednesday's training camp practice, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
ANALYSIS
Bishop was unable to play in the Bills' preseason opener against the Giants on Saturday due to a quad injury. The 2024 second-rounder appears past the issue after he got work in team drills during Wednesday's practice, and he is tracking toward being available for Sunday's preseason game against Chicago. Bishop saw work on both defense and special teams during his rookie season and is competing against Damar Hamlin for a starting safety spot next to Taylor Rapp.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
On track to start
Bishop is poised to take over as a starting safety for the Bills this season, Joe Buscaglia of the Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Selected in the second round of the 2024 Draft, Bishop had his rookie season derailed early by an injury in training camp, and he wound up starting just four regular-season games last year. He made a big impact in the playoffs, however, racking up 10 tackles in the AFC Championship Game against Kansas City. The Utah product has looked much more confident in OTAs this time around, and Bishop could be on course to take over a starting spot in 2025 next to Taylor Rapp in the Buffalo secondary.
