Bills' Terrel Bernard: Output declines in 2025
Bernard (calf) tallied 65 total tackles (44 solo) and three passes defensed, including one interception, over 12 regular-season contests in 2025.
Bernard has seen vast declines across several statistical categories over the last two seasons, recording fewer total tackles (143 to 65), sacks (6.5 to zero), passes defensed (five to three) and interceptions (three to one) compared to his 2023 campaign. However, his 2025 season was cut short by injuries, as he missed five regular-season contests and both of the Bills' playoff games. Bernard was one of Buffalo's best tacklers when healthy, recording the fourth-most stops on the team. Under contract through 2029, the Baylor product is expected to remain one of the Bills' top inside linebackers in 2026.

Bills' Terrel Bernard: Ruled out vs. Denver
Bernard (calf) is inactive for Buffalo's divisional-round matchup versus the Broncos on Saturday, Alec White of the team's official site reports.
Bernard managed to be a limited participant in practice throughout the week but will nonetheless be sidelined for a third consecutive game. In his absence, Dorian Williams and Joe Andreessen could see increased playing time, while Bernard will look to return next week during the AFC Championship Game should the Bills defeat Denver.

Bills' Terrel Bernard: 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 reports.
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.

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

Bills' Terrel Bernard: Ruled out for wild-card round
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Bernard (calf) is ruled out for Sunday's wild-card round matchup against the Jaguars, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.
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.

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

Bills' Terrel Bernard: Logs DNP on Wednesday
Bernard (calf) won't participate in Wednesday's walkthrough practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Bernard's absence Wednesday comes as no surprise, as he's already been ruled out for the Week 18 matchup against the Jets due to a calf injury. Both Dorian Williams and Joe Andreessen could have expanded roles in Buffalo's linebacker corps while Bernard is sidelined Sunday.

Bills' Terrel Bernard: Won't play Week 18
Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that Bernard (calf) will not play in the Bills' regular-season finale against the Jets on Sunday, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Bernard suffered a calf injury during the second quarter of the Bills' 13-12 loss to the Eagles on Sunday and did not return. He'll be sidelined for Week 18 and aim to progress enough in his recovery to be available for the wild-card round of the postseason. Joe Andreessen and Dorian Williams are poised for larger roles on defense in Bernard's absence.

Bernard (calf) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's contest against the Eagles.

Bernard (calf) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Bernard appeared to suffer the injury in the second quarter and was evaluated by medical staff in the blue medical tent. Dorian Williams and Joe Andreessen are candidates for more snaps on defense for as long as Bernard is out of the game.
