2025 Fantasy Outlook
Oliver played 14 regular-season games in 2024 but finished the year with just 29 tackles (14.0 solo), including 3.0 sacks, plus three forced fumbles - a notable step down after he tallied 51 tackles, including 9.5 sacks, in 16 regular-season contests back in 2023. DaQuan Jones also regressed in 2024, leaving Buffalo's interior pass rush lacking. Oliver remains locked into a key starting role for Buffalo heading into his age-28 season, with two years remaining on his contract, but expectations for his production should be tempered.

Signed a four-year, $68 million contract with the Bills in June of 2022.
Doesn't practice Monday
Oliver (ankle) did not participate in Monday's walk-thru practice, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Oliver was unable to play in Sunday's win against the Jets after his foot was stepped on in practice last week. Head coach Sean McDermott did not specify an timeline for Oliver's return, but the seventh-year defensive tackle would have to practice in at least a limited capacity over the next two days to have a shot at playing against the Dolphins on Thursday. Deone Walker and rookie second-rounder T.J. Sanders would see increased work at defensive tackle alongside DaQuan Jones if Oliver cannot play Thursday.

Oliver's fifth year in the league was easily his best, as the 2019 first-rounder set career highs for tackles (51), sacks (9.5), and tackles for loss (14). Looking ahead, the 26-year-old Oliver and fellow interior lineman DaQuan Jones will continue to lead one of the stronger units on the Bills, and if your league forces you to have a spot for both defensive ends and tackles, Oliver is one of the league's better IDP choices for the latter slot.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Room for improvement in game sense
Defensive line coach Eric Washington believes Oliver has yet to play up to his potential, according to Ryan O'Halloran of The Buffalo News.
ANALYSIS
Washington would like to see Oliver improve in the mental aspects of the game and start playing from ahead. Better pre-game preparation and film study could help Buffalo's 2019 first-round pick take a step forward, though Oliver has already done enough to earn a four-year, $68 million extension earlier this offseason despite posting a career-low 2.5 sacks in 2022.
