Douglas tallied 58 total tackles (43 solo), five passes defended and one forced fumble over 15 regular-season games in 2024. Douglas remained relatively productive in his first full season with Buffalo, ranking third on the team in passes defended and fourth in tackles for loss (five) while starting each game he appeared in. However, the 29-year-old's production declined significantly from 2023, recording fewer tackles (61 to 58), passes defended (14 to five) and interceptions (five to zero). While Douglas played 157 fewer defensive snaps in 2024 than in 2023, his drop in production remains a concern. Having just completed the final season of his current contract, he's set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. Despite a down year, Douglas will likely remain a sought-after name for teams in need of secondary help heading into 2025.

Douglas (knee) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Jets. Douglas appears poised to return following a two-game absence. It'll be a boost for Buffalo's defense over the final two weeks of the regular season and into the playoffs. In 13 games this season, Douglas has recorded 55 tackles (40 solo), five pass breakups and one forced fumble as one of the Bills' starting cornerbacks.
Douglas (knee) was listed as a full participant in Buffalo's practice estimate Wednesday. Douglas has missed the team's past two games due to a knee injury but is now trending towards making his return. He should be good to go for Sunday's matchup versus the Jets where he resume his role as one of the team's starting corners.
Douglas (knee) will not play in Sunday's matchup with the Patriots. Douglas was limited all week at practice following an absence in last week's win over the Lions. He will ultimately not be able to get the green light from the team's medical staff. In his absence, Ja'Marcus Ingram and Kaiir Elam are candidates to see increased snaps at cornerback.
Douglas (knee) will be a limited participant in Friday's practice and is questionable for Buffalo's Week 16 outing against the Patriots, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Douglas will log another limited practice as he works back from a knee injury that sidelined him in last week's huge win over the Lions. The veteran cornerback is now listed as questionable for this upcoming Sunday's game versus the Patriots, and his practice this Friday should be a huge decider on whether he'll suit up against the conference opponent.
Douglas (knee) was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report. Douglas missed his first game of 2024 in Buffalo's Week 15 win over the Lions due to a knee injury, and Wednesday's estimated limited session indicates he's still dealing with the issue. The veteran corner from West Virginia has recorded 55 total tackles, including five passes defended, and one forced fumble over 13 appearances this season. His practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely offer the best insight into whether he can return in Week 16, when the Bills face the Patriots.
Douglas (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Lions, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. One of the Bills' two starting outside cornerbacks, Douglas will miss his first game of the season, and it comes ahead of a Week 15 showdown with the Lions at Ford Field on Sunday. Ja'Marcus Ingram is likely to get the start in his place and will have his hands full with Jameson Williams and Tim Patrick. Christian Benford will cover the opposite side of the field, and Taron Johnson mans the slot for Buffalo, where he'll see a lot of Amon-Ra St. Brown.
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Douglas (knee) will not participate in practice, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Buffalo is hosting a walkthrough practice session Wednesday, but Douglas' lack of availability nonetheless bodes poorly for his chances of being available for Sunday's road matchup against the Lions. He's nursing a knee injury sustained during the second half of the Bills' loss to the Rams in Week 14.
Douglas (knee) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest against the Rams. Douglas suffered a knee injury in the second half Sunday and he's unlikely to return as a result. In his absence, Ja'Marcus Ingram stands to operate in a more significant role in Buffalo's secondary.
