Finds new home in Seattle
The Seahawks agreed to terms on a contract with Dodson on Thursday, Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com reports.
Analysis: Dodson will turn 26 years old in June and is coming off the best season of his four-year career last season in Buffalo, finishing with 74 tackles (57 solo), 2.5 sacks, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery across 17 regular-season games, including 10 starts. Dodson took on a bigger role following Matt Milano's season-ending leg injury and will now go to Seattle to help offset the departures of Bobby Wagner and Jordyn Brooks.

Posts best NFL season
Dodson played in all 17 games of the regular season for Buffalo, logging 74 total tackles, 2.5 sacks, two passes defensed, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.
Analysis: The fourth-year player out of Texas A&M became a full-time starter for the Bills and posted more defensive snaps (519) than in all three of his previous seasons combined. Dodson is only the third-best linebacker on the team, as he sits behind Matt Milano and Terrel Bernard in terms of productivity. Rookie Dorian Williams -- plus whoever the Bills might bring in during the draft or via free agency -- could have an angle to Dodson's starting role in 2024, but he did enough in 2023 that someone is…read more

Active Sunday
Dodson (shoulder) is active for Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Chiefs.

Still dealing with shoulder issue
Dodson (shoulder) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Dodson sustained a shoulder injury in the Bills' Week 18 win that held him out of the team's wild-card affair, but it seems as if he's got a shot at playing in the divisional round against the Chiefs after beginning the week with two limited practice sessions. The 25-year-old is expected to carry an injury designation into Sunday's outing unless he's able to practice in full Friday.

Inactive versus Steelers
Dodson (shoulder) is inactive for Monday's wild-card round game against the Steelers, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Dodson, who was limited in practice Friday, approached the contest listed as questionable, but he'll sit this one out and target a potential return to action in the divisional round of the playoffs, should the Bills advance. In his absence Monday, look for Baylon Spector to see added linebacker snaps versus Pittsburgh.

Questionable for playoff game
Dodson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's wild-card round game against the Steelers, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Dodson's set to be a limited participant once again in practice Friday. He was unable to return to the regular-season finale against the Dolphins after injuring his shoulder in the first half. If the starting linebacker is unable to play Sunday, Tyler Matakevich could take on a larger role in a game that may feature plenty of running plays with winter weather in the forecast.

Limited at Wednesday's walkthrough
Dodson (shoulder) was a limited participant at Buffalo's walkthrough practice Wednesday.
Analysis: Dodson was forced out of Sunday's win at Miami early due to a shoulder injury, but it doesn't seem like it was too serious. He'll still likely need to practice in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Downgraded to out
Dodson (shoulder) won't return to Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Dodson sustained a shoulder injury in the first half of Sunday's matchup and will be unable to return down the stretch. Whether he'll be available for the start of the playoffs remains to be seen.

Questionable to return
Dodson is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Miami due to a shoulder injury.
Analysis: Dodson had three solo tackles, including a sack, to begin Sunday's matchup but went down in the first half. If he can't return against the Dolphins, Tyler Matakevich could see additional playing time.

Eight tackles in victory
Dodson recorded eight tackles (four solo), including a half-sack, in Sunday's 31-10 win over the Cowboys.
Analysis: Dodson was able to reach eight stops for the second straight week, even getting to quarterback Dak Prescott. The linebacker has had an impressive 2023 campaign so far, compiling 63 tackles, including 1.5 sacks, two pass deflections, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 14 contests.

Eight tackles in win
Dodson recorded eight tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 20-17 win over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Dodson was a busy man in Week 14, compiling his second highest tackle total of the year. The linebacker has stepped into a larger role in 2023, already producing a career-high 55 takedowns, including a sack, while also adding two pass deflections, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 13 games so far.

Buffalo's leading tackler vs. Jets
Dodson recorded seven tackles (six solo) including a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 32-6 win versus the Jets.
Analysis: The highlight of Dodson's day came when he punched the football out of the arms of Garrett Wilson and created a turnover for the first time this season. He's firmly on the IDP radar for the remainder of the year, especially so when the Bills travel to take on a run-heavy Philadelphia team in Week 12.

Logs double-digit tackles
Dodson recorded 10 (eight solo) in Sunday's 24-18 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: Dodson finished second on the team in tackles and compiled double-digit tackles for the first time this campaign. The 25-year-old has continued to see increased playing time with Matt Milano (leg) on injured reserve, and Dodson will look to have another strong performance against the Broncos on Sunday.

Productive in loss
Dodson logged seven tackles (five solo) in Buffalo's 29-25 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
Analysis: Dodson had his most productive game of the season setting a new high in tackles while seeing increased playing time, with Matt Milano (leg) on injured reserve. The 25-year-old Dodson will look to build off this solid performance Thursday against the Buccaneers.

Loses out on starting role
Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Dodson's teammate Terrel Bernard will start in Week 1 at the Jets, Ryan O'Halloran of The Buffalo News reports.
Analysis: Dodson was the early favorite for the starting middle linebacker job, a role left vacant by the free-agent departure of long-time starter Tremaine Edmunds. This development doesn't mean Dodson won't see the field, but unless he's seeing action on defense the majority of the time, he won't have IDP value to begin the season.

In mix for starting role
Bills general manager Brandon Beane mentioned Dodson by name Tuesday when discussing possible replacements for the vacant starting middle linebacker job following the departure of long-time starter Tremaine Edmunds in free agency, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports. "I think we got some young guys that have waited their turn and their opportunity," Beane said. "Let's start with Tyrel Dodson who has been here for a while in our system and knows it. I think he filled in admirably when Tremaine missed time. And so, I think he'll have that opportunity."
Analysis: The Bills still have time to bring someone in via free agency or the upcoming draft, but for now it looks like a four-way competition for the job between Dodson, A.J. Klein, Terrel Bernard and Baylon Spector. Dodson -- who posted 32 tackles and a sack last season and served as the primary fill-in in for Edmunds when he was hurt -- and Klein offer more experience than the other two teammates, who were both rookies last season.

Re-ups with Bills on one-year deal
Dodson and the Bills agreed to terms on a one-year contract Tuesday, the team announced.
Analysis: Dodson was set to be a restricted free agent and will be back with the Bills for 2023 after playing 21 percent of the defensive snaps last season while starring on special teams.

Records 13 tackles in start
Dodson logged 13 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's 31-23 win over the Browns.
Analysis: Dodson recorded a new career high in tackles while starting in place of injured middle linebacker Tremaine Edmunds (groin) for the second game this season. The 24-year-old backup previously recorded a career-best 11-tackle outing in his Week 5 start, though he wound up playing 100 percent of the Bills' defensive snaps for the first time during this win over Cleveland. With Edmunds sidelined for each of Buffalo's first two practices Week 12, Dodson could once again see significant usage against…read more

Logs career-best outing Sunday
Dodson recorded 11 tackles (seven solo) and one sack during Sunday's 38-3 victory over the Steelers.
Analysis: Dodson started Sunday's contest against Pittsburgh in place of Tremaine Edmunds, who was ruled out for the game with a hamstring injury. The 24-year-old Dodson played 84 percent of Buffalo's defensive snaps and also surpassed his previous career-best tackling performance, which was seven stops in Week 5 of 2020. If Edmunds misses additional time, Dodson would again be the prime beneficiary for extra playing time. The Bills head to Kansas City in Week 6 for what could be another instant classic.

Officially starting Sunday
Dodson is starting in Sunday's matchup against the Steelers, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.
Analysis: With Tremaine Edmunds out with a hamstring injury, Dodson is officially taking over a more prominent linebacker role for Week 5. The 24-year-old has logged 26 tackles (17 solo), one sack and one pass breakup through his first four games of the 2022 campaign.

Back in action Friday
Dodson (general soreness) recorded three tackles during the Bills' preseason finale against the Panthers on Friday.
Analysis: Dodson missed Buffalo's first preseason outing due to general soreness, but he looks ready to go for the team's Week 1 matchup against the Rams on Sept. 8. The veteran primarily played on special teams (275 of his 350 total snaps) for the Bills last year, but he could step up into a bigger role defensively heading into his third season with the team.

Out for preseason opener
Dodson is not practicing Thursday due to muscle soreness, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The Bills have been giving some of their veterans time off throughout camp with the "soreness" label, so we'll assume Dodson is likely to be ready for Week 1. However, he's not scheduled to hit the field Saturday against the Colts in Buffalo's first exhibition game.

Re-ups with Buffalo
Dodson has re-signed on a one-year contract, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The 2022 campaign will be Dodson's third with the team. While the Texas A&M product is unlikely to see starter's time at linebacker, he's a versatile backup and an excellent special teams player. The latter will be especially needed with the Bills having quite a bit of turnover to their coaching staff this offseason, including the special teams coaches.

Activated by Bills
Dodson (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
Analysis: Dodson was unavailable for a week and a half due to the league's COVID-19 protocols, but he'll now be able to return to practice. Across his last five appearances, the linebacker has logged eight tackles (seven solo).

Lands on COVID-19 list
Dodson was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.
Analysis: Dodson will need to produce back-to-back negative tests at least 24 hours apart or complete a 10-day quarantine before he is allowed to return to team facilities. With Dodson and A.J. Klein both potentially out Sunday due to COVID-19 protocols, Tyler Matakevich may be in line for an increased workload against the Panthers.

Activated off IR
The Bills activated Dodson (hamstring) off injured reserve Saturday.
Analysis: The Bills are much healthier at linebacker compared to earlier this season, when Dodson had to be used in a pinch as a starter because several regulars were out. If he suits up Sunday night against the Steelers, he'll be used in a depth and special teams role. Dodson has not seen the field since Week 6 against the Chiefs.

Trending in right direction
The Bills have designated Dodson (hamstring) to return to practice, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Dodson has missed the last five games while residing on IR with the hamstring injury, though he's now expected to return to practice this week. The Bills will have 21 days to activate the linebacker, and he could return to the lineup as early as Monday's game against the 49ers.

Moved to IR
Dodson (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Dodson has been receiving plenty of action lately with injuries hitting starters Tremaine Edmunds and Matt Milano, but with Edmunds playing again and Milano about to, Dodson's playing time was about to go down even without the injury. He'll now be forced out of action for at least a few weeks.

Won't face Jets
Dodson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's divisional contest against the Jets.
Analysis: Dodson couldn't practice in any capacity this week, so it doesn't come as much of a surprise to see him officially ruled out. On a more positive note for the Bills, Matt Milano (pectoral) is listed as questionable and appears to have a good shot at suiting up.

No practice yet this week
Dodson, who suffered a hamstring injury during Monday's loss to the Chiefs, missed practice for the second straight day Thursday.
Analysis: Dodson seems like a long shot to return Sunday against the Jets, though at least the Bills could get starter Matt Milano back after the latter practiced on a limited basis the past two days.

Picks up hamstring injury
Dodson is questionable to return to Monday's game against the Chiefs due to a hamstring injury.
Analysis: The 22-year-old didn't have a tackle before exiting the contest with the injury. His opportunity on the field may be short-lived if injured starter Matt Milano is able to return soon.

Big contributor in road win
Dodson posted eight tackles and two passes defensed, and played all but one defensive snap in Buffalo's win over Miami in Week 2.
Analysis: The reserve linebacker started in the middle in place of starter Tremaine Edmunds (shoulder) and certainly didn't disappoint. The coaches pointed out how well Dodson played, and he'll certainly be given the same role in Week 3 if Edmunds can't return from his injury. Even when the latter returns to action, Dodson has probably earned himself a few more looks in certain defensive packages.

Set to start Week 2
Dodson will pick up his first NFL start Week 2 against the Dolphins, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: The Bills have a major mess at linebacker for Week 2, with their top two starters out in Matt Milano (hamstring) and Tremaine Edmunds (shoulder), while depth LB Del'Shawn Phillips (quad) has been ruled out as well. Dodson will take over Edmunds' middle linebacker spot, and while he may not see the field on every defensive snap as Edmunds typically does, don't be surprised if Dodson is one of the team's tackle leaders against Miami.
