Bills' Taylor Rapp: Bright star in training camp
Taylor Rapp continues to work with the first-team defense during training camp and continues to make big plays while being looked to for leadership by coach Sean McDermott, Alec White of the Buffalo Bills' official site reports.With longtime stars Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde no longer in the fold, Rapp already stood a good chance of serving in a starting role entering camp. However, between his own strong play and injuries to Mike Edwards (hamstring) and Cole Bishop (shoulder), Rapp is now pretty much guaranteed to start for Week 1. Rapp put up 94 tackles and four interceptions in a starting role for the Rams in 2021, so he's worthy of the IDP radar in Buffalo now that the starting role looks to be his.

Bills' Taylor Rapp: Back in Buffalo on three-year deal
Taylor Rapp (calf) re-signed with the Buffalo Bills on Wednesday on a three-year contract worth up to $14.5 million, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.With the Bills releasing Jordan Poyer earlier Wednesday and with Micah Hyde scheduled for free agency, keeping Rapp was a priority for general manager Brandon Beane. Rapp played on a one-year deal with the Bills in 2023, appearing in 16 regular-season games (four starts) and registering 50 tackles (33 solo), one interception, one fumble recovery and 0.5 sacks. He'll likely settle into a full-time starting role in 2024.

Bills' Taylor Rapp: Not practicing Wednesday

Bills' Taylor Rapp: Leads defensive charge in tight win
Taylor Rapp posted nine total tackles in Saturday's 24-22 win over the Chargers.Rapp has been put on the spot with starter Micah Hyde out with a neck injury, as he's played 100 percent if the defensive snaps in each of the past two weeks while recording his two highest tackle totals of the season in that span, with Saturday's nine being his highest single-game mark. Rapp is still looking for his first interception of the season -- he's previously never had a pro season without one -- but he's been around the ball with regularity in Hyde's absence and makes for a good IDP play if his teammate has to miss any more action.

Taylor Rapp recorded eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys.Rapp was unable to play in Week 14 due to a neck injury, but he made sure to take advantage of his return Sunday, compiling a season-high eight takedowns.
