Buffalo Bills Middle Linebacker Terrel Bernard Sidelined Against Seattle Seahawks with Ankle Injury

Friday, October 25th, 2024

The Buffalo Bills will be without their starting linebacker, Terrel Bernard, in their game against the Seattle Seahawks as he recovers from an ankle injury. Bernard, who serves as the captain for the Bills, has been sidelined since their win against the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. His absence comes as a result of not only the injury but also a persistent pectoral injury and some personal issues, leading to his inability to play.

Facing the Seahawks presents a significant challenge for the Bills, especially with Kenneth Walker III, their dynamic running back, on the field in Bernard's absence. To fill this gap, Baylon Spector, now in his third year, is expected to step in as the starting linebacker.

In addition to Bernard, wide receiver Curtis Samuel and rookie defensive tackle DeWayne Carter will also be sidelined. Both players have been ruled out due to injuries, with Samuel dealing with a pectoral issue and Carter suffering from a wrist injury. Samuel's injury could keep him out for more than one week, while Carter is set to undergo surgery.
