Damar Hamlin is expected to be active for Bills on Sunday

[Woodman]

Bills safety Damar Hamlin appears to be on track to make his first regular season appearance since going into cardiac arrest on the field in Cincinnati in Week 17 of the 2022 NFL season.

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that Hamlin is expected to be active for Sunday’s game against the Dolphins. Hamlin has been on the 53-man roster all season, but was a healthy scratch for the first three weeks of the regular season.

The change in status is tied to the knee injury that will keep Jordan Poyer from playing this weekend. Taylor Rapp will likely start in place of Poyer, but Hamlin is the only other safety on the active roster. Sunday’s game will be in Buffalo, so there will likely be a rousing response to seeing Hamlin back on the field when he does have his number called.

Some are thinking Hamlin will start over Rapp. Rapp has more experience, but is very slow for a safety. That becomes more important when you're defending against a team of greyhounds.

Rapp will have grill marks on his back by the end of this one. Hammering the Dolphins (+2.5)

Are you really betting heavy and taking the points? Really? Is hammering big bucks? 4 digits or does 3 count?

I’m thinking this will be a 3 safety on the field game.

Just 3 digits, love Miami +120 for $500. Two talented teams but they have far superior and innovative coaching than us

I guess you gotta make up for losing $500 by betting against the Bills vs Miami.

But, hey, I REALLY respect you for putting your money where your mouth is. You also said you were happy to lose that bet, and I respect that too!!
