2024 Fantasy Outlook
At this point in his career Edwards is a proven commodity and a solid contributor from the free safety position. A third-round pick by Tampa Bay in 2019, Edwards played out his four-year rookie contract with the Bucs, while seeing a notable uptick in productivity (82 tackles in just 13 games) in Year 4. Following his lone season in Kansas City, Edwards will now have a chance to become a key cog in Buffalo's re-tooled safety corps. Read Past Outlooks

Ruled out for Week 14
Edwards (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Las Vegas, Brianna Dix of the Buccaneers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
As expected, Edwards will be sidelined for Sunday's game due to a Grade 1 hamstring strain that he suffered in the Bucs' Week 13 overtime win over the Panthers. With Edwards sidelined, Christian Izien will likely be the Bucs' starting strong safety Sunday while Kaevon Merriweather serves in a rotational role.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Competing for job against rookie
Eric Edholm of NFL.com views 2024 second-round pick Cole Bishop as Buffalo's potential starter at free safety over Edwards.
ANALYSIS
Edwards signed a one-year contract with the Bills in hopes of returning to a starting role after playing a part-time role in Kansas City's championship-winning secondary last season. Bishop is challenging Edwards for the free safety spot next to starting strong safety Taylor Rapp, and Edwards' bid to impress his new team's coaching staff has been hampered by a shoulder injury, which kept the veteran safety out of OTAs and limited his participation during minicamp.
