Tremaine Edmunds Fantasy Stats

Chicago Bears linebacker Tremaine Edmunds (knee) did not practice on Tuesday as his team prepares to take on the Carolina Panthers at home in Week 10's Thursday game. Edmunds' absence marks two straight missed practices as he deals with a knee injury that he picked up during a Week 9 loss to the New Orleans Saints. At this point, Edmunds would likely need to get in at least a limited practice on Wednesday to have a chance at playing on Thursday. He has 63 total tackles, one interception, and one fumble recovery in eight games this season.

The Chicago Bears agreed to a four-year, $72 million deal with former Buffalo Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds on Monday, according to a source. The deal includes $50 million guaranteed and is the largest four-year contract for an inside linebacker in NFL history. The 24-year-old former first-rounder in 2018 has had at least 100 total tackles in each of his five seasons with the Bills and is one of the best inside linebackers in the league. Paired with T.J. Edwards, Chicago suddenly has one of the better linebacking duos in the NFL. Even though he's now in Chicago, Tremaine Edmunds should remain a top IDP linebacker in 2023 and beyond.

Linebacker Tremaine Edmunds plans to "let the process take shape," a statement he recently made regarding his impending free-agent status. The 24-year-old, who wrapped up the fifth and final season of his rookie deal, had amassed 565 total tackles, 6.5 sacks, and five interceptions since being selected in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft by the Bills. Without a doubt, Buffalo would love to keep him on the roster. However, the Bills need to make some moves to get under the cap, so Edmunds could very well find himself on a new team next season.

Buffalo Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds (groin) is questionable to return against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 10. He had three tackles before exiting, bringing his season-long total to 65. With the 24-year-old sidelined, Tyrel Dodson will handle more snaps at linebacker.

Buffalo Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds (hamstring) is officially out for the Week 11 game against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. Edmunds was listed as questionable on the final injury report and will miss his second straight game. The 23-year-old is a big part of Buffalo's interior defense as a near every-down player. He has recorded 55 tackles (35 solo), three tackles for loss, one interception and two passes defensed in eight games in 2021. Edmunds' absence will make it more difficult on a Buffalo D trying to slow down Colts running back Jonathan Taylor. Expect to see A.J. Klein on the field more with Edmunds out for a second straight game. The Bills defense/special teams should remain in all starting fantasy lineups.

Buffalo Bills linebackers Tremaine Edmunds (shoulder) and Matt Milano (hamstring) are both expected to be active for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Edmunds was limited all week while Milano got in a full session on Friday. It's big news for Buffalo, who will now have two of their best defenders to help solidify the middle of the field. Rams tight end Tyler Higbee might be looking at a more difficult matchup than anticipated, though he should still be in lineups due to his red zone prowess.

Buffalo Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds is emerging as one of the defensive leaders to help replace Lorenzo Alexander and Kyle Williams, who have moved on in recent seasons. "Well the first guy that comes to mind is just seeing Tremaine's development in this offseason," defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier said. "This virtual offseason. Just the way he has been kind of bringing players together and talking with them, calling them, reaching out to them, going past his own position, the linebackers position." Edmunds just turned 22 years old and had 115 tackles -- his second 110-plus tackle season in as many years -- and nine passes defensed. Buffalo's defense/special teams is a unit on the rise and should be targeted as a top-five fantasy commodity, while Edmunds is also a fringe starter at linebacker in IDP leagues.

Buffalo Bills sensational rookie linebacker Tremaine Edmunds missed Wednesday's practice, as he is in the league's concussion protocol. Edmunds left Monday night's game prior to halftime, shortly after hitting helmets with Patriots fullback James Develin. Before leaving the game, the 20-year-old middle linebacker recorded eight tackles (six solo), marking the fourth contest that he has reached that many combined tackles. He has registered six or more tackles in each game this season. Veteran Julian Stanford will likely replace the former Virginia Tech star in the starting lineup if he is unable to go. If Edmunds does play against the Bears in Week 9, he is certainly an IDP target for fantasy players, as he is a three-down player who is averaging 13.5 points a game.

Buffalo Bills linebacker Tremaine Edmunds, the team's first-round pick, is locked in at middle linebacker for his rookie season, and the Bills aren't putting kid gloves on him during offseason workouts. Edmunds didn't leave the field once during organized team activities on Thursday while working with the first-team defense. Second-year linebacker Matt Milano also never left the field. Edmunds has a good chance of being in the running for Defensive Rookie of the Year for the stats he will accumulate from being on the field all the time. Obviously, Edmunds will be a popular dynasty and IDP selection right off the bat.

The Buffalo Bills traded up to select Virginia Tech linebacker Tremaine Edmunds at No. 16 overall in the 2018 NFL draft. He has a rare combination of size and speed for a linebacker, so he's certainly a specimen. He also has nice versatility for his size, and he can rush the passer or play in space in coverage. He needs to work on his tackling in the backfield and at the line of scrimmage, however. Edmunds will turn 20 years old next week but he has a high ceiling at the next level.
