Prior to the 2022 NFL trade deadline closing at 4:00 p.m. ET Tuesday afternoon, the Buffalo Bills made two trades. One was for Indianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines, and the second was for Atlanta Falcons safety Dean Marlowe.
Marlowe, who was with the Bills from 2018-20, re-joins the team less than a week after Buffalo returned to game action following the bye week. Up until this point in the season, Marlowe had suited up for all eight Falcons games this season. Since Marlowe himself won’t have a bye week thanks to the trade, and thanks to the NFL’s recently-expanded, 17-game regular season schedule, Marlowe now has a chance to make NFL history.
