Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Getting start Sunday
Hairston will be one of Buffalo's starting cornerbacks in Week 15 versus New England as a result of Christian Benford missing the game due to a toe injury, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports.
This will be Hairston's second career start -- he previously got the nod in Week 10 against Miami, when he logged one tackle and an interception while Benford was sidelined due to a groin issue. The rookie has, however, gotten plenty of reps since making his NFL debut in Week 8, as he has typically logged a defensive snap share of around 50 percent. The conditions for Sunday's contest include frigid temperatures and possible snow, so it wouldn't be surprising if both squads go to the run game more often than usual.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Cleared to play Week 13
Hairston (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Steelers.
Hairston was concussed in last Thursday night's loss to the Texans, but the added rest allowed him to clear the concussion protocol. The first-round rookie cornerback has appeared in five games this season, producing three tackles (two solo) and three pass breakups, including a pair of interceptions, across 175 defensive snaps.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Full participant Thursday
Hairston (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Hairston sustained a concussion in the Bills' loss to the Texans last Thursday and was a limited participant in practice Wednesday. The upgrade to full participation is encouraging, but Hairston will still have to clear the league's concussion protocol to play in Sunday's game against the Steelers.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Limited Wednesday
Hairston (concussion) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
The 2025 first-round pick from Kentucky sustained a concussion in the Bills' Week 12 loss to the Texans, so it's no surprise that he's limited at Wednesday's practice. Hairston must clear the NFL's five-step protocol in order to play in Sunday's matchup against the Steelers. If he's unable to do so, expect Ja'Marcus Ingram to have an expanded role as Buffalo's top reserve outside corner.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Placed in concussion protocol
Hairston was placed in the concussion protocol Friday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Hairston apparently sustained the concussion in Thursday night's loss to the Texans. He'll have 10 days to try and get ready for Buffalo's Week 13 contest with the Steelers. Since making his season debut in Week 8, Hairston has produced three tackles (two solo) and three pass breakups, including two interceptions, on 58 percent of the defensive snaps across five contests.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Cleared to make NFL debut
Hairston (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
The rookie first-rounder started the season on injured reserve after sustaining a knee injury during training camp in late July. Hairston was limited in practice all week, but he was activated off IR on Saturday and has been cleared to play in Week 8 after going through pregame warmups. Given that Sunday will be his NFL debut, Hairston could be limited to a special-teams role while providing depth in the secondary behind cornerbacks Tre'Davious White, Christian Benford and Taron Johnson.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Activated off IR
The Bills activated Hairston (knee), who remains questionable for Sunday's game against Carolina, off injured reserve Saturday.
Prior to Saturday, Hairston had been on IR all season after suffering an LCL sprain in his right knee in late July. The rookie cornerback was designated to return this past Monday and logged a trio of limited practices, though it's uncertain if he'll be active Sunday. Whenever Hairston gets into a game, it will be his NFL debut.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Questionable for Sunday at Carolina
Hairston (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game at Carolina, Chris Brown of the Bills Radio Network reports.
Hairston was a limited participant at practice for the Bills' entire week of preparation, but he officially remains on the injured reserve list as of Friday. Buffalo is otherwise relatively healthy at cornerback, so it's not fully clear what kind of role is waiting for Hairston when he is finally healthy enough to make his NFL debut.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Designated for return from IR
The Bills designated Hairston (knee) for return from injured reserve Monday, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
The move opens Hairston's 21-day practice window after he was injured in the early days of training camp back in July. Hairston was Buffalo's first-round pick in the 2025 Draft, and his eventual return will be a big boost to the Bills' secondary.

Bills' Maxwell Hairston: Will miss at least four games
Hairston (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
The rookie first-round pick will be eligible to return Week 5 versus the Patriots , as he's recovering from an LCL sprain in his right knee that he picked up in late July. Hairston was a potential starter, but with limited training camp reps he may need additional time to ramp up even once he's medically cleared. Tre'Davious White (lower leg) is expected to start opposite Christian Benford if the former is healthy.
