Bills RB Nyheim Hines Suffers Freak Knee Injury, to Miss 2023 Season

After being acquired by the Bills via trade at last year’s in-season deadline, Hines made less of an impact in the Buffalo backfield than he did on special teams as a returner (he scored two touchdowns in Week 18).

With Singletary gone for Houston, Hines could have stepped into a potentially larger role in the receiving game in 2023, but he’ll be forced to spend the year recovering from the injury.

Tom Pelissero reports that the injury occurred in a “stationary jet ski accident”, with another driver crashing their vehicle into Hines resulting in the injury.

The fantasy impact leaves James Cook with a larger workload than originally anticipated, opening the door for a breakout from the second-year back.
