It ain’t the injury, it’s the type of surgery required to fix it and since he had the ACDF as opposed to the ADR procedure, the minimum recovery time is six months for the spinal bone grafts to properly fuse. How do you know which procedure he had, I have seen nothing. Just speculation.maybe I missed it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still not entirely confirmed, but this article does believe it's the ACDF repair. Which requires a 6-9 month recovery. https://www.si.com/nfl/bills/news/buffalo-bills-safety-micah-hyde-surgery-timetable-jordan-poyer-tredavious-white Hyde will probably be able to do just about anything short of contact, but worst case scenario, assuming a full recovery, is that he will be full go, sometime around TC for 2023. Tbh, if I'm the Bills, I'm not looking at any scenario where he has contact until TC, at the earliest. There's simply no need. The veteran that he is, he will be more than capable of doing all of the walk throughs etc. until such time as clearance comes, and it's probably not happening until we've had the mandatory OTAs etc. anyway. While he has been sorely missed, the timing of his surgery, looks to work out nicely, to have him back firing on all cylinders, for the start of next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevewin Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills make the SB that Hyde gets activated, Stamkos-like, just to appear in the game. I don't think that they are counting on him walking in the first playoff game to be a full time starter for the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every media report after his surgery suggested a recovery time of 6-9 months which indicates he had the ACDF procedure. If those reports are inaccurate and he had the ADR instead, then we are at the required 3 month recovery mark, which might explain the hopeful rhetoric from Hyde recently.

Just like when von said 7-10 days right before he was IR'd. But it's unfortunately not happening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

co_springs_billsfan Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 5 hours ago, Doc Brown said: So much of it is luck as we were a squib kick away from hosting an AFC Championship game last year. The Chiefs almost choked in the Divisional round in 2020 beating the Browns by five. Browns win that and they travel to Buffalo for the AFC Championship game. You can debate all you want which of the last three seasons we had the best roster but our current roster as constructed has as good of chance as any in the league. Having Hyde back (while not an absolute must) would slightly increase our chances. I agree with everything you are saying. OP just acting like it's some guarantee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. K Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 This is fantasy. Even if he's cleared to play, he can't play at his former level coming off almost a full season of not playing. In the current situation he would not offer an improvement to the defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Livinginthepast Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 Maybe Hyde could wear one of those 80s style neck pads or q collars. Maybe he could wear a q ray bracelet!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuffaloMatt Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 It is easy to comeback from injury. Just look at Tre, he is killing it. . . . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LABILLBACKER Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 As much as we all want to hope for more reinforcements, it's not happening. Micah and Tre won't be 100% until this summer and Von may not return till November. That's the truth & reality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SageAgainstTheMachine Posted December 31, 2022 Share Posted December 31, 2022 I 100% believe that if Hyde returns we either will or won’t win the Super Bowl, and if he doesn’t return we either will or won’t win the Super Bowl. Will take any bets on this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
