Top Christian Benford News

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Gets contract extension

    Benford and the Bills have agreed upon a four-year, $76 million extension, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

    Benford was widely considered a Pro Bowl snub last season after putting together a standout campaign that included the sixth-highest PFF grade (79.3) among NFL cornerbacks. The Villanova product finished the regular season with a career-high 64 tackles, including his first NFL sack, 10 pass defenses (including two interceptions) and two forced fumbles over 15 contests. Benford was set to enter 2025 on the final season of his rookie contract, but with the extension he'll now be a core member of Buffalo's defense for the foreseeable future.

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Clears concussion protocol

    Head coach Sean McDermott told reporters Monday that Benford has cleared concussion protocol and has resumed football activities, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Benford suffered a concussion during the first quarter of the Bills' AFC Championship Game loss to the Chiefs, and it wasn't until about a week after the game that he cleared protocol, per Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo. Benford finished the 2024 regular season with a career-high 64 tackles (50 solo), including 1.0 sacks, 10 pass defenses (including two interceptions) and two forced fumbles over 15 games.

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Career year in 2024

    Benford (concussion) recorded 64 total tackles (50 solo) including 1.0 sack, 10 passes defended with two interceptions, and two forced fumbles over 15 regular-season games in 2024.

    The third-year pro from Villanova started every game he appeared in for the Bills this season, serving as one of the team's top outside cornerbacks. Benford tied his career highs in passes defended, interceptions and forced fumbles in 2024 while setting a new personal best in total tackles, which included the first full sack of his career. He's entering the final season of his rookie deal in 2025, but don't be surprised if Benford gets a contract extension this offseason, having led the Bills in passes defended and interceptions in 2024.

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Out for rest of AFCCG

    Benford (concussion) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against Kansas City.

    Benford suffered a blow to the head in the first quarter, quickly being diagnosed with a concussion. The defensive back suffered a concussion in the team's AFC divisional-round matchup with the Ravens, and his status moving forward will now be in question if the Bills advance to the Super Bowl. In Benford's absence, Cam Lewis and Kaiir Elam will see an uptick in usage in the secondary versus Kansas City.

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Active for AFC Championship Game

    Benford (concussion/personal) is active for Sunday's AFC Championship Game versus the Chiefs.

    Benford was placed in concussion protocol after Buffalo's wild-card win against the Ravens last Sunday. The third-year cornerback was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday, and he missed Friday's session for personal reasons. Benford should be ready to hold down his starting spot opposite cornerback Rasul Douglas, leaving Buffalo without just one starter in its secondary, as strong safety Taylor Rapp (hip) has already been ruled out.

  • Bills' Christian Benford: Officially listed as questionable

    Benford (concussion/personal) did not practice Friday and is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Chiefs.

    Benford remains in the NFL's concussion protocol, and after logging back-to-back limited practices he missed Friday's session for personal reasons. He'll need to gain full medical clearance, including from an independent neurologist, in order to be eligible for Sunday's road game against Kansas City. On a positive note for the Bills, fellow starting cornerback Taron Johnson (neck/shoulder) has been cleared to face the Chiefs, though safety Taylor Rapp (hip/back) is ruled out.
