Bills' Christian Benford: Practices in full Wednesday
Benford (wrist) was estimated as a full participant for Buffalo's walk-through practice Wednesday.
Benford sat out of Sunday's game versus the Dolphins with a wrist injury, but Wednesday's injury report bodes well for his chances of suiting up in Week 10. If he can practice in full Thursday or Friday, he'll probably be able to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Bills' Christian Benford: Questionable for Sunday
Benford (wrist) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins.
Benford began the Bills' week of practice as a full participant; however, he downgraded to limited work both Thursday and Friday, suggesting he could be trending toward not playing Sunday. If the third-year cornerback is unable to play in Week 9, expect Kaiir Elam and Ja'Marcus Ingram to see increased snaps with the Bills' first-team defense.

Bills' Christian Benford: Working through wrist injury
Benford (wrist) was a listed as a limited practice participant on the Bills' injury report Thursday.
Benford was a full practice participant Wednesday, but a wrist injury limited his participation during Thursday's session. Friday's injury report should shed light on the severity of the injury and his chances of playing against Miami on Sunday. If Benford cannot play, Cam Lewis figures to be the top candidate to start at corner alongside Rasul Douglas and safeties Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamlin.

Bills' Christian Benford: Tallies interception in TNF win
Benford racked up seven tackles (six solo) and one interception during Thursday's 31-10 win over the Bills.
Benford is flying under the radar as one of the best zone-coverage cornerbacks in the league, and his pairing with Rasul Douglas allowed the Bills to limit Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle to 65 combined receiving yards Thursday. The 2022 sixth-round pick's tackle totals won't always be so high, but he'll have another favorable matchup on deck Week 3 versus Jacksonville.

Bills' Christian Benford: Should enter summer work as starter
Benford (knee) finished the 2023 regular season with 54 tackles, 10 passes defensed, two interceptions, two forced fumbles an a fumble recovery over 15 games.
The Bills cut longtime starter Tre'Davious White in the offseason for cap purposes, leaving Benford (who started 14 regular-season games last season) and Rasul Douglas as the likely starters entering the next campaign, though the do-it-all Taron Johnson often sees work as a corner. Buffalo is out of cap space and seems likely to draft a receiver with its first-round pick, so perhaps the only real competition for Benford's job during training camp will come from 2022 first-rounder Kaiir Elam, a player that's disappointed to date and saw action in only three regular-season games last season. Benford did miss the team's playoff loss to the Chiefs due to a knee injury, though there's no word that his summer participation is under any sort of risk.
