Rousseau (toe) logged a full practice Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie popped up on the injury report Wednesday as a non-particpant in practice. There appears to be no concern of him missing Sunday's game versus the Chiefs and he'll look to build upon his 13 tackles and two sacks in the contest.

Rousseau did not practice Wednesday due to a toe injury.

EDGE Analysis

We'll see if the rookie can ramp things up and get himself in position to play this week at Kansas City. The early returns on the first-rounder out of Miami are good so far, as he's worked himself into the rotation on a strong defense while posting 13 tackles and 2.0 sacks.

Rousseau had five tackles and his first two NFL sacks in Sunday's win over the Dolphins.

EDGE Analysis

Rousseau slipped down to the bottom of the first round in April's draft, mostly because he sat out last season for the Miami Hurricanes due to COVID concerns. It looks like the Bills may have gotten themselves a steal, as the 6-foot-6 Rousseau has already worked himself into the rotation on a talented line and is proving himself a handful for opposing linemen. He's probably not quite IDP worthy yet, but if he can keep carving out playing time, that day may not be too far off.

The Bills came to terms on a four-year deal with Rousseau on Thursday, Mark Gaughan of The Buffalo News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The rookie out of Miami was the 30th overall pick in April and should have an immediate key role on the defensive line after recording 15.5 sacks in 2019. However, given that Rousseau sat out all of 2020 due to the pandemic and with the Bills having a plethora of D-linemen to use -- the team even used its second-round selection for the position by taking Carlos Basham -- it may be a bit before we're talking about Rousseau in IDP terms. Still, his upside is high given his college production and 6-foot-7 frame.

The Bills selected Rousseau in the first round of the 2021 NFL Draft, 30th overall.

EDGE Analysis

Rousseau might be a little thin at 6-foot-7, 266 pounds, but the former Miami (FL) star is still young (turned 21 in April) and has room to add mass to his frame. Moreover, he's a standout athlete with very impressive production. He was credited with a 4.68-second 40, which gives him major pursuit range when combined with his standout wingspan. Rousseau produced 15.5 sacks and 19.5 tackles for loss in just 13 games in 2019, his true sophomore season, so the skill set element of his game is already well-demonstrated. He seems like a 'when, not if' sort of prospect, though the Bills of course will hope his future is sooner rather than later.
