Mathis (shoulder) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis has missed the last two games with a shoulder injury after being signed to the active roster Nov. 5. The return to full practice participation is a strong indication that the rotational defensive tackle will be able to take the field for Sunday's matchup with the Steelers.

Mathis (shoulder) will be a limited practice participant Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Alabama product has missed the Bills' last two games due to a shoulder injury, but Wednesday's limited session could be an indication he's nearing a return. Mathis likely needs to upgrade to full practice Thursday or Friday to not have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Steelers.

Mathis (shoulder) is inactive for Thursday's Week 12 matchup against Houston.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis missed Sunday's win against Tampa Bay due to a shoulder issue. He was limited in practice both Tuesday and Wednesday this week, but he's not yet able to return to game action. Mathis began the campaign on IR due to an unrelated calf injury, and he's played in just three games so far this season.

Mathis (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Thursday night's matchup against the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
The 27-year-old logged back-to-back limited sessions to end the Bills' week of practice, giving himself a chance to return in the Week 12 contest. If active Thursday night, Mathis will likely operate as one of Buffalo's top reserve interior defensive linemen.

Mathis (shoulder) was limited in Tuesday's practice.

Mathis (shoulder) is out for Sunday's game versus Tampa Bay, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis played a season-high 21 defensive snaps in Week 10 at Miami, but he'll sit out in Week 11 with a shoulder injury. His absence could open up additional reps on the defensive line for veteran Jordan Phillips.

The Jets claimed Mathis off waivers Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis was waived by the Commanders on Saturday after being a healthy scratch in each of the last three games. He'll join the Jets and could suit up for the regular-season finale against the Dolphins on Sunday. Mathis appeared in 12 regular-season games for Washington and accumulated 17 tackles (eight solo) and one pass defense.

The Commanders activated Mathis (calf) from the injured reserve list Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis was placed on IR at the end of training camp after he sustained a calf injury in a preseason game. He played in the 2022 season opener but sustained a season-ending injury when he tore his meniscus. Now that he's healthy, the 2022 second-round pick out of Alabama will provide depth at defensive tackle behind the talented duo of Daron Payne and Jonathan Allen.

Washington designated Mathis (calf) for return from its injured reserve list Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Mathis has missed the Commanders' first seven games of the season with a calf injury he's been tending to since the preseason, but he's finally approaching a return to pads ahead of Week 8. Washington's injury reports over this week will provide more information regarding his availability for that contest.

The Commanders placed Mathis (calf) on injured reserve Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move corresponds with the team re-signing center Tyler Larsen. Mathis has been dealing with a calf injury since the Commanders' preseason game against the Browns and will now miss at least the first four games of the 2023 season.
