Dareus is being sued over claims of sexual assault, Chris Parenteau of News 4 Jacksonville reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unlikely the NFL or the Jaguars will comment on the matter until after the legal process has played out. Even if Dareus doesn't lose in court, it's still possible that the league could issue a punishment for the defensive tackle in regards to a violation of the personal conduct policy.

Dareus (illness) is free from the Jaguars' injury report heading into its Week 10.
EDGE Analysis
Dareus missed consecutive practices earlier in the week while recovering from an illness, but returned to a full workload Friday. Assuming he avoids any type of setback, he looks good to go for Sunday's game versus the Chargers.

Dareus is dealing with an illness and was held out of practice Wednesday, Michael DiRocco of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dareus only played 12 defensive snaps in his Jaguars debut Sunday against the Bengals but made an impact during his time on the field, logging three tackles. Unless the illness prevents him from getting back on the practice field by Friday, Dareus should be good to go for the Week 10 matchup with the Chargers and potentially take on a larger role now that he's had more time to get acclimated with his new team.

The Bills traded Dareus to the Jaguars on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move is a curious one, as the Bills sit firmly in the playoff picture as one of five AFC teams with a 4-2 record or better. Joining forces with former Buffalo head coach and the current boss in Jacksonville, Doug Marrone, Dareus will firm up a Jaguars defense that has been susceptible to the run to the tune of 138.6 yards per game conceded on the ground. On the season, Dareus has played just 33 percent of the Bills' defensive snaps to date, which has translated to eight tackles, including one sack, in five games.

Dareus (personal) doesn't appear on the Bills' injury report Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Dareus was excused from Monday's practice for personal reasons. Now that he's confirmed to be back with the team, there doesn't seem to be any concern over his availability for Sunday's tilt with Tampa Bay.

Dareus has been excused from practice for personal reasons, Mike Rodak of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
We'll see if Dareus is able to return to practice later in the week following the team's bye, as he's reportedly back home in Alabama. While players often miss practices for personal reasons, Dareus' situation always merits an extra eye because of his constant struggle with injuries and off-the-field issues, though we'll note that no one is saying anything yet that this is more than just an excused day away from the team.

Dareus (ankle) practiced fully Friday and is not listed on the injury report for this week's game in Cincinnati.
EDGE Analysis
This was the first time Dareus has practiced fully in quite some time. Even though he played last week, he was limited to 22 defensive snaps. It looks like that number is about to go up as the Bills try to defeat the Bengals and move to 4-1.

Dareus was limited during Wednesday's practice as the Bills continue to take it easy on his injured ankle.
EDGE Analysis
Dareus played in Sunday's upset win over Atlanta after being questionable all week, but he only saw 22 defensive snaps and didn't log a tackle. He may face continued limitations this week in Cincinnati, even though it's expected he'll play. Then the Bills get a bye, which should really help Dareus in particular.

Dareus (ankle) is active for Sunday's game in Atlanta, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
The Bills' defense has been great all season, but it'll certainly help having their best interior lineman back as Buffalo tries to stop Atlanta's high-powered attack. Dareus is still looking for his first sack of the season after playing in the first two games and missing Week 3.

Dareus (ankle) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Falcons, Joe Buscaglia of 7 ABC Buffalo reports.
EDGE Analysis
This doesn't come as much of a surprise seeing as though Dareus was able to put in a full practice Thursday. Look for the tackle to be a full go Sunday as the Bills attempt to slow down Atlanta's high-powered offense.
