Bills' Christian Benford: Returning in Week 16
Benford (toe) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Browns.
Benford was sidelined for the Bills' Week 15 win over the Patriots due to a toe injury, but Friday's full practice session suggests he's since moved past the issue. Benford is a crucial part of Buffalo's secondary, recording 39 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and two interceptions in 12 appearances this season. Now fully healthy, he's expected to operate as the Bills' top boundary corner Sunday.

Bills' Christian Benford: Listed as limited
Benford (toe) was a limited participant in Wednesday's walkthrough practice.
Benford was unable to suit up for Buffalo's win over New England in Week 15. He didn't practice last Friday, so getting in at least limited on-field reps to begin Week 16 is a tangible step in the right direction. Benford will have two more chances to upgrade to full practice reps ahead of Sunday's game against Cleveland.

Bills' Christian Benford: Unable to suit up Week 15
Benford (toe) is inactive for Sunday's tilt versus the Patriots.
Benford popped up on the injury report with a toe issue Thursday and finished the week as a non-participant at practice Friday. Per Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network, the injury isn't considered long term, but the Bills determined that Benford would have limited movement Sunday if he had suited up. Maxwell Hairston is getting a start at cornerback against New England in Benford's absence.

Bills' Christian Benford: Listed as questionable for Week 15
Benford (toe) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Benford wasn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, but he then downgraded to limited practice activity Thursday and missed Friday's practice entirely, which may indicate that he's trending in the wrong direction for Sunday's game. He was spotted with a walking boot on his left foot Thursday. Rookie first-round pick Maxwell Hairston will stand to draw a start at cornerback if Benford can't play Sunday.

Bills' Christian Benford: Pops up on report with toe injury
Benford (toe) was listed as a limited participant at Thursday's practice.
Benford wasn't on the injury report Wednesday, when the Bills held a walk-through practice. The starting cornerback has scored a touchdown in each of Buffalo's last two games, following up a fumble recovery touchdown against the Steelers with a pick-six against the Bengals. Benford was spotted with a walking boot on his left foot after Thursday's practice, per Matt Parrino of Syracuse.com, suggesting there is legitimate concern that he may not be available for Sunday's showdown with the AFC East rival Patriots.

Bills' Christian Benford: Clutch pick-six vs. Cincinnati
Benford tallied 1.0 sacks and a pick-six during the Bills' 39-34 win over the Bengals on Sunday.

It's the second week in a row that Benford has scored a defensive touchdown, and the fourth-year corner is up to 39 tackles (28 solo), including 2.0 sacks, two interceptions and two fumble recoveries through 12 regular-season games.

Bills' Christian Benford: Scores first NFL touchdown in win
Benford recorded two tackles (one solo), an interception and a fumble recovery for a touchdown during Sunday's 26-7 win at Pittsburgh.
On the first play from scrimmage in the second half, Benford came into the backfield on a corner blitz, putting him in position to scoop up an Aaron Rodgers fumble at the Steelers' 17-yard line and dash into the end zone. He had a relatively slow start to the year, but things appear to be picking up for him with a Week 14 tilt versus the Bengals around the corner.

Bills' Christian Benford: Trio of tackles in TNF loss
Benford recorded three tackles (one solo) in Thursday night's loss to Houston.
Benford dealt with a groin issue during the practice week but logged 95 percent of the defensive snaps. Davis Mills rarely targeted Benford in coverage but was successful when he did, completing all three passes for 51 yards. Through 10 games this season, Benford has piled up 36 tackles (26 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one fumble recovery. He did leave the Thursday's game briefly to have a shoulder issue looked at but was soon cleared to return.

Bills' Christian Benford: Ready for Thursday
Benford (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Texans.
The 25-year-old began the Bills' week of practice with consecutive limited sessions after missing the team's Week 11 win over the Buccaneers due to a groin injury. However, Benford practiced in full Wednesday, suggesting he's moved past his groin issue in time to play Thursday. Now fully healthy, expect the Villanova product to operate as one of Buffalo's top boundary cornerbacks in Week 12.

Bills' Christian Benford: Still working through groin injury
Benford (groin) was limited during Monday's walkthrough practice, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
A groin injury prevented Benford from playing against the Dolphins in Week 10, but he was cleared to play in Sunday's 44-32 win over the Buccaneers, when he logged one solo tackle while playing every single defensive snap. Seeing as he didn't miss a snap on defense Week 11, Benford will likely be available for Thursday's game against the Texans, though he'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation.

Bills' Christian Benford: Limited Wednesday
Benford (groin) was limited in Wednesday's practice.
Benford was inactive for last Sunday's loss to the Dolphins, missing his first game of the season. In his absence, Maxwell Hairston, Tre'Davious White and Cam Lewis dominated cornerback snaps, with Ja'Marcus Ingram seeing 11 defensive snaps as the fourth corner. A limited start to the practice week for Bedford would seem to suggest he has a chance to return this week against Tampa Bay.
