Who Should I Start? Kaiir Elam or Cam Taylor-Britt

Wednesday, December 27, 10:30 AM

Buffalo Bills cornerback Kaiir Elam (foot) was activated from the Injured Reserve list on Wednesday. The 2022 first-round pick was placed on IR with a foot injury following the Week 8 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and has been sidelined for each of the last seven games. Elam was notably a healthy scratch early in the season, so his return will provide depth for Buffalo's secondary more than anything. The 22-year-old has racked up 55 tackles and two interceptions through his first 16 career games.

The Cincinnati Bengals opened the 21-day practice window for cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt (ankle) to return from Injured Reserve. The second-year pro was placed on IR on December 4 after suffering an ankle injury in practice. The Bengals have allowed the fifth-most passing yards per game (256.1) this year, so his return to the lineup could provide a boost for the struggling secondary. Taylor-Britt tallied 46 tackles, one forced fumble, and four interceptions (one returned for a touchdown) in 10 games before being sidelined. The Bengals now have 21 days to activate him to the roster, though they are on the outside looking in for an AFC Wild Card spot.
