Dee Alford: Breaking News

Alford is in line to sign a three-year contract worth up to $21 million with the Bills, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports Monday. Alford spent the first four years of his NFL career with the Falcons after signing with Atlanta as an undrafted free agent in 2022. Despite his lack of draft status, the Tusculum product turned into a steady starter for the Falcons and put together his strongest season in 2025, when he logged 67 tackles (55 solo), including 2.0 sacks, 13 pass defenses (three interceptions), one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 16 regular-season games. Assuming the deal is confirmed, Alford will likely serve as the Bills' slot corner, bolstering a secondary that includes young cornerbacks in Christian Benford, Dorian Strong (neck) and Maxwell Hairston (ankle), as well as safety Cole Bishop.

Alford tallied 67 total tackles (55 solo), including 2.0 sacks, 13 passes defensed, including three interceptions, and one forced fumble over 16 regular-season games in 2025. The Tusculum product enjoyed one of the best seasons of his career in 2025, setting personal highs in passes defensed, sacks and interceptions. Additionally, Alford was a key portion of the Falcons' secondary, finishing first on the team in passes defensed, tying for second in interceptions and ranking sixth in total tackles. Set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, Alford could be in line for a decent contract following another impressive season in Atlanta.

Alford recorded three total tackles (all solo) and one interception in Thursday's 29-28 win over the Buccaneers. Alford nabbed a crucial fourth-quarter interception that set up a Falcons touchdown and pulled the game within one score Thursday. He's been an integral part of Atlanta's secondary this season, tallying 56 total tackles, 10 passes defensed, including two interceptions, and one forced fumble across 13 appearances. The Tusculum product is expected to continue operating as the team's top slot corner in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals.
