Christian Benford — Active
Benford has been given the green light to return from a one-game absence due to a toe injury that he sustained during the Bills' Week 3 win over the Chargers. He'll resume his starting spot at outside cornerback, and while rookie first-rounder Maxwell Hairston will start opposite Benford, rookie second-rounder Davison Igbinosun will also be involved in the Bills' secondary, per Nick Suss of ESPN.com.
Christian Benford — Questionable
Benford suffered a toe injury against the Chargers in Week 3 and didn't practice at all last week. After missing Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, the veteran cornerback was able to return to practice, albeit in a limited capacity, Thursday. The Bills play Monday against the Rams, so Benford will have two more days to try to ramp up to full practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of that contest.

Christian Benford — Out
The fourth-year pro was absent from practice heading into Sunday's game after exiting in the third quarter of the Patriots' Week 3 loss to Jacksonville. Davison Igbinosun is expected to see more playing time with Benford out.
Christian Benford — Questionable
Benford suffered a toe injury during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 3 win over the Chargers and didn't return to the contest. With consecutive DNPs to begin the week of prep, the veteran cornerback's status for Sunday's matchup against the Patriots is looking very iffy. Should Benford not be able to suit up for that game, Davison Igbinosun could draw the start.
Christian Benford — Questionable
Benford left the game in the third quarter due to a toe injury, which is severe enough for him to be sidelined for the rest of Sunday's contest. Te'Cory Couch and Davison Igbinosun will continue to operate in elevated roles in Benford's absence.
