Bills' Dorian Strong: Reverts to reserve list
Strong (neck) reverted to the reserve/non-football injury list Friday.
Strong had a productive rookie season, logging reps at outside cornerback throughout the first four weeks of the 2025 season before suffering a career-altering neck injury. The 2025 sixth-round pick was seen at OTAs, but he's not expected to play in 2026 due to the severity of the neck issue. Strong cleared waivers, allowing the Bills to keep him on the roster as he works toward a possible return in 2027.

Dorian Strong: Waived with non-football injury
Strong (neck) was waived with a non-football injury designation by the Bills on Thursday.
The 2025 sixth-round pick appeared at Buffalo's OTAs in May without a neck brace, but he still didn't participate, per Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com. Strong will clear waivers if he's not claimed by another team, at which point he'd be free to sign with whoever he wants, though it's unclear how serious his injury is at this point.

Bills' Dorian Strong: Sheds neck brace
Strong was spotted at Buffalo's OTAs on Tuesday without a neck brace, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
It appears Strong is still nursing his neck injury, as he wasn't participating in Tuesday's voluntary OTAs. However, the fact that he's no longer wearing a neck brace is an encouraging sign for his recovery ahead of the 2026 season. The 2025 sixth-round pick from Virginia Tech appeared in four regular-season games during his rookie campaign, recording 10 total tackles across 133 total snaps (87 on defense, 46 on special teams).

Bills' Dorian Strong: Not playing vs. New England
Strong has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Patriots due to a neck injury.
Strong was unable to participate in the last two practices of the week due to a neck injury, and the rookie sixth-rounder will miss his first game of the season as a result. Ja'Marcus Ingram and Cam Lewis are in line to see more rotational work at corner behind Tre'Davious White and Christian Benford due to Strong's absence. Strong will aim to return to practice next week and be available for the Bills' Week 6 road clash against the Falcons on Monday, Oct. 13.

Bills' Dorian Strong: Headed to Buffalo
The Bills selected Strong as the first pick of the sixth round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 177th overall.
Strong finished out his five-year career at Virginia Tech with 53 games played, racking up 112 tackles and seven interceptions. He doesn't jump off the page as an elite athlete but has decent size at 6-foot-1, 185 pounds. Strong excels at play recognition and is solid supporting in the run game, making him an ideal fit for Buffalo's zone defense. He'll likely kick off his career in a depth role and may be asked to contribute on special teams. The Bills have put a heavy emphasis on bulking up the secondary thus far in the draft, making Strong their third pick at cornerback after Maxwell Hairston (first round) and Jordan Hancock (fifth round).
