Heading into the upcoming NFL season, the Bills are hoping to find one safety starter in their new defense now run by defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard. The hope in Buffalo is they do not need two starters because Cole Bishop is set to return to at one of those positions.
FOX Sports thinks that's a smart idea because the outlet named one start that is set to emerge for every NFL team in 2026. The one projected to in Buffalo is Bishop.
Entering his third season in the NFL, Bishop had an improved year in 2025 from his first season in the pros. Bishop had his first three interceptions in the NFL last season, alongside seven pass breakups.
FOX Sports' breakdown on Bishop can be found below:
The 2024 second-rounder started to flash what he’s capable of last season when he had three interceptions, two sacks and 85 tackles in his first full season as a starter. Now he’s surrounded by some sages to help him take the next step. The Bills’ new defensive coordinator is Jim Leonhard, who spent a decade playing safety in the NFL. And the Bills brought in veterans Geno Stone and C.J. Gardner-Johnson to play alongside Bishop. The 6-2, 206-pounder is a weapon who has proved he can line up almost anywhere in the Buffalo secondary. Leonhard is the right guy to figure out how to use him best.
