The Buffalo Bills will inaugurate this season’s Monday Night Football games. They will square off against their divisional rival, the New York Jets. Bills are known to have acquired one of the most talented rosters in the league. Yet, a lot of pundits believe that the team is currently going through a downward phase. After all, they failed to end up in the Super Bowl in the last two seasons.

However, the 2023 season may prove to be the reckoning year for the team. Their staunch motto is quite apparent, as they released the first injury report of the year, and it was quite minimal per se. Micah Hyde was the only name that ended up on the report, which was not at all expected by the Bills Safety. The team’s head coach explained the current situation of Hyde.

Sean McDermott gives details about Hyde’s back injury

A few days ago, head coach Sean McDermott declared that Micah Hyde wouldn’t be joining his team for the Wednesday practice. It was due to his back injury that came up just a couple of days ago. Well, to everybody’s surprise, Hyde showed up at practice and tried to showcase that he felt great. He tried to tone down the seriousness looming due to his injury.

After seeing Hyde at practice, McDermott said, “I know I said he wasn’t going to practice (Wednesday), he ended up doing a little bit of the jog-through sessions.” But then he mentioned they’ll limit the Safety on his Thursday session. “But he’ll be limited (Thursday),” he added.

So, for good reasons, Dermott doesn’t want to take any chances regarding the severity of his player’s injuries. Then through the team’s official X account, the Bills released their injury report. But despite the limitations and injury report, Hyde does not want to miss his team’s first game of the season. He believes that his condition is just a by-product of old age.

Micah Hyde blames his condition on old age

Micah Hyde wants to be part of this season desperately, mainly because he couldn’t be a part of almost the entire last season due to his neck injury. While, in 2021, Hyde was venerated as the second-team All-Pro. This year, he wants to emulate what he did two years ago. Moreover, after his Thursday limited session, he told the media he was feeling great.

“Did a little bit more today,” Hyde stated after Thursday’s training. “Still got a few days to Monday night, so I’m good.” Additionally, when asked about the reason behind such an injury, Hyde remarked, “You know, it just comes with old age. Probably wrestling with my son or something. I don’t know. Just woke up and felt a little tightness“.

Buffalo Bills have shown quite a promise by putting forward an almost clean slated injury report. Notably, Hyde is also feeling much better than before, so it’s safe to say that Bills is on a great start ahead of their Monday Night match. What are your thoughts about this?
