2025 Fantasy Outlook
Bishop put forth a solid rookie campaign while handling a rotational role behind Taylor Rapp and Damar Hamlin, recording 40 tackles (25 solo), two passes defensed and one forced fumble across 16 regular-season appearances. The 2024 second-round pick notably played 100 percent of defensive snaps during Buffalo's loss to the Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game with Rapp injured, leading the team with 10 tackles. Buffalo's decision to re-sign Hamlin on a one-year deal seemingly positions Bishop for another year in a No. 2 role, despite his flashes of brilliance as a rookie, but superior athleticism could be enough for the Utah product to elbow up the depth chart Year 2.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Breaking out in second season
Head coach Sean McDermott praised Bishop's emergence in the last few weeks, Albert Breer of SI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Bishop's standing with the Bills was unclear entering his second year as a pro after an inconsistent rookie season. He also had a modest start to his sophomore season but has emerged in the last several weeks, logging at least six tackles in five straight games while also intercepting a pass in consecutive matchups. McDermott noted the value of strong safety play following Buffalo's Week 11 win over Tampa Bay, and he also stated that Bishop is filling a valuable role for the team.
