Bills one-time Pro Bowl safety Micah Hyde suffers hip injury at training camp
Bills Mafia may be entering the final weekend of July by holding their collective breath, as one of their star defenders suffered an apparent injury at training camp on Friday.
According to Buscaglia, the Bills "often cart injured players to the locker room regardless of severity due to its distance from the practice field," so it's likely too early to panic in Western New York. The beat reporter further noted that since he joined the organization in 2017, Hyde has played the second most snaps of any defender on Buffalo's roster.
A former fifth-round pick out of Iowa, Hyde spent the first four years of his career with the Green Bay Packers, before signing a five-year, $30.5 million contract with the Bills in March 2017. Hyde was re-upped on a two-year, $19.25 million contract extension in March 2021.
In the early afternoon, Buscaglia had an update on Hyde's injury.
The 31-year-old registered 74 tackles, 10 passes defended and matched his career-high with five interceptions during the 2021 campaign. Hyde also had two fumble recoveries and was named Second Team All-Pro for the second time in his career.
