Nyheim Hines

The Browns have signed Nyheim Hines to a one-year deal worth up to $3.5 million.

Fantasy Impact

Hines was released by the Bills after missing all of last season. He'll likely hold a role in special teams and potentially in the passing game out of the backfield with Cleveland.

The Buffalo Bills reportedly plan to release Nyheim Hines this week.

Hines is expected to be healthy for training camp after tearing his ACL last summer. He spent the 2022 season with the Bills after five years with the Colts.

Nyheim Hines suffered a knee injury while working away from the team and is expected to miss the entire 2023 season.

Fantasy Impact

A tough break for the Bills as this will definitely impact their running back depth and impact them on special teams. The Bills will have James Cook, Damien Harris, and Latavius Murray still leading the running back room heading into 2023. Fantasy managers can expect the Bills to look for another versatile back to replace Hines this season.

Nyheim Hines rushed the ball one time for two yards and caught one pass for nine yards in Saturday's 35-13 win against the Bears.

Fantasy Impact

Hines was uninvolved on Saturday, recording just two touches in the team's win over the Bears. He didn't see many snaps, and that continues the trend of him struggling to get playing time since being traded to Buffalo at the trade deadline. He may have more value in the future, but there's no reason to be playing him in any fantasy leagues at the current moment.

Nyheim Hines did not see a carry Saturday but did catch his lone target for 10 yards and a touchdown.

Fantasy Impact

Hines found the end zone for the first time as a Bill on Saturday but with only one touch the entire game that is not reason enough to expect consistency. Hines is best left on the bench in Week 16.
