2024 Fantasy Outlook
Hamlin, who survived an on-field cardiac arrest back in January 2023, saw action in just five regular-season games last season, but his now that he's further removed from his frightening medical incident, the 2021 sixth-rounder is a candidate to see an expanded role in 2024. As the coming season approaches, Hamlin is penciled in as a starting safety for the Bills alongside Taylor Rapp. Read Past Outlooks
Listed as inactive
Hamlin (ribs) will not play in Sunday's tilt against the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
Hamlin's absence will mark his second straight. He sat out last week due to a back injury, but he will now sit out with a rib issue. When healthy, the fourth-year safety has established himself as a regular starter on the defense. In his absence, and with Taylor Rapp (neck) also sidelined, Kareem Jackson and Cole Bishop are the only healthy safeties going into the game.
