Rousseau (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Rousseau practiced without limitations Friday after a pair of limited sessions, helping him get the green light to suit up Sunday against Buffalo's green-clad AFC East rivals. Buffalo's 2021 first-round pick is looking for his first sack of the season after tying his career high with 8.0 during the 2024 regular season.

Rousseau was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice due to a knee injury.

EDGE Analysis

Rosseau played 35 of 51 defensive snaps during the Bills' Week 1 win over the Ravens and finished with three solo tackles and a pass defense. He may have picked up a knee injury during the victory, but he'll have two more chances to log a full practice and avoid an injury tag heading into Sunday's AFC East clash against the Jets.

Rousseau recorded three tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed during Sunday's 41-40 win versus the Ravens.

EDGE Analysis

Lamar Jackson only attempted 19 passes on a day where Baltimore averaged 8.2 yards per rush attempt as a team, so Rousseau didn't get many opportunities to pin his ears back in Week 1. The Bills' matchup against the Jets in Week 2 doesn't necessarily lend itself to many chances to rush the quarterback either, so Rousseau might have to try to make the most of every shot he gets.

Rousseau agreed to a four-year, $80 million contract extension with the Bills on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 2021 first-round pick has been a stalwart for the Bills' defense in his first four years in the NFL. He's coming off a 2024 campaign in which he logged 53 tackles (36 solo), including 8.0 sacks (tying a career best), three pass defenses, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 16 regular-season games while adding 2.0 sacks across the Bills' three playoff contests. Rousseau will continue to serve as a linchpin for Buffalo's defense alongside Terrel Bernard, A.J. Epenesa and Ed Oliver.

Rousseau recorded 53 total tackles (36 solo), including 8.0 sacks, three passes defended and three forced fumbles over 16 regular-season games in 2024.

EDGE Analysis

Rousseau was an iron man for the Bills this season, starting every game except for a Week 18 matchup against the Patriots, when Buffalo rested its starters after securing the No. 2 seed in the AFC. The 2021 first-round pick from Miami tied his career high in sacks in 2024 while leading Buffalo's defense in tackles for loss (16), sacks and forced fumbles. His team-option for the 2025 season was picked, making it likely he'll return to the Bills. Rousseau is expected to remain one of Buffalo's top defensive players next year and could very well receive an extension at some point this offseason.

Rousseau registered four tackles (all solo), including 1.0 sacks, and recovered a fumble in Sunday's 35-10 win over the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

In a game that was played in snowy conditions, players on both sides of the ball visibly struggled to gain traction on field. That led to just one sack -- Rousseau's second-quarter takedown of Brock Purdy -- being recorded across both teams. Rousseau has registered a sack in three of his past four contests and is up to 6.5 on the campaign. His career-high mark is 8.0, which he established in 2022 as a second-year player.

Rousseau recorded seven total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks and an additional two tackles for loss, in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

The fourth-year pro wreaked havoc on the Dolphins' offensive line in Sunday's win, as he was the only Bill to take down Tua Tagovailoa while also logging an additional two tackles for loss. Rousseau is having one of the best seasons of his young career through nine games, recording 33 total tackles, including 4.5 sacks, and two passes defended. He's expected to continue causing problems for opposing offenses as the Bills face the Colts in Week 10.

Rousseau recorded four tackles (three solo) and two passes defensed during Sunday's 31-10 win at Seattle.

EDGE Analysis

Rousseau's production in the sack column has dried up since he tallied 3.0 sacks in Week 1 versus the Cardinals, but he proved Sunday he can still make an impact without getting to the quarterback. He'll be after Tua Tagovailoa when Buffalo hosts the Dolphins in Week 9.

Rousseau recorded six tackles (six solo) including 3.0 sacks and a forced fumble during Sunday's 34-28 win versus the Cardinals.

EDGE Analysis

One of his sacks in Week 1 came on a foot race to the sideline with Kyler Murray, whose exceptional speed Rousseau was basically able to match after shedding right tackle Jonah Williams (knee). It's a dynamite start for a player looking for the first double-digit sack season of his career. He'll be pursuing Tua Tagovailoa when the Bills trek to Miami in Week 2.

The Bills will exercise Rousseau's 2025 fifth-year team option, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 24-year-old was the 30th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft and has 17 sacks through three seasons as a 46-game starter for Buffalo. Rousseau played a career-high 585 defensive snaps last season. The Bills need Rousseau, A.J. Epenesa and veteran Von Miller to key their pass rush in 2024 after notably only adding fifth-round rookie Javon Solomon off the edge and losing Leonard Floyd's 10.5 sacks in free agency.
