Logs nine tackles vs. Indy
Bernard finished Sunday's 30-20 win over the Colts with nine tackles (four solo) and one pass defense. Bernard co-led the Bills in tackling Sunday with Dorian Williams. Bernard has logged at least eight tackles in three consecutive outings and has played every single defensive snap in five regular-season games. He's up to 49 tackles (33 solo), two pass defenses (including one interception) and one fumble recovery across seven regular-season contests.
Logs eight stops in Week 9
Bernard tallied eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins. Bernard returned from a one-game absence due to an ankle injury and was able to be on the field for all 60 of the Bills' defensive snaps. He tied his second-highest tackle total of the campaign. Bernard has registered 40 tackles (29 solo) and an interception through six contests on the campaign.
Past ankle issue
Bernard (ankle) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Dolphins. Bernard was able to practice in full Friday after logging back-to-back limited sessions to begin the Bills' week of practice, suggesting he's now moved past his ankle issue. The third-year linebacker has recorded 32 total tackles and one interception across five appearances this season. He's expected to serve as Buffalo's top middle linebacker in Week 9's divisional matchup.
Back on field
Bernard (ankle) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Bernard missed the Bills' Week 8 win over the Seahawks and was unable to practice leading up to the game. His ability to get back on the field in any capacity should have him on the right trajectory to suit up Week 9 against the Dolphins. However, a clearer picture of his status for the matchup likely won't come closer to kickoff Sunday.
Ruled out to face Seahawks
Bernard (ankle/pectoral/personal) is ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports. Bernard missed two games earlier this season due to a pectoral injury, and a trio of designations will now keep him sidelined for Week 8. That means Barnard's next chance to take the field will come Week 9 against the Dolphins. Against Seattle on Sunday, though, Baylon Spector will get a chance to step into a starting role in the Bills' linebacker corps.
DNP on Thursday
Bernard (ankle/pectoral/personal) did not participate in Thursday's practice, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Bernard has missed the first two practices of the week, and he is in jeopardy of being ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks. The 2022 third-round pick was forced out of the Bills' Week 7 win over the Titans twice due to head and ankle injuries, the former of which he was cleared of. Bernard missed two games earlier in the regular season due to a pectoral injury, during which Baylon Spector filled in as the Bills' top inside linebacker.
Misses Wednesday's practice session
Bernard (ankle/pectoral/personal) did not practice Wednesday, Dorian Alerte of the Bills' official site reports. Bernard left Sunday's win over the Titans twice, once due to a head injury (he was cleared) and the second time due to the ankle issue, which now has him sidelined to start the week's practice slate along with apparent pectoral and personal reasons. Bernard is a tackle monster when healthy -- he accrued 143 of them last season -- but his status appears to be in jeopardy for this week's game contest in Seattle.
Won't return vs. Tennessee
Bernard (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Titans. Bernard left Sunday's game for a second time due to an ankle injury, which is severe enough for him to be sidelined for the rest of the game. He'll end his day with eight tackles (six solo) and one fumble recovery. Baylon Spector will step in as the Bills' middle linebacker with Bernard out for the game.
Questionable to return
Bernard is questionable to return to Sunday's tilt with the Titans due to an ankle injury. Bernard tallied eight tackles (six solo) and one fumble recovery prior to exiting the contest. It remains to be seen if he will be able to return. In his absence, Baylon Spector would be the likely candidate to fill in at middle linebacker.
