Bills signed safety Micah Hyde for a two-year extension, the team announced Friday.

Hyde was scheduled to become a free agent after the 2021 season.

Buffalo now has two security devices – Hyde and Jordan Poyer – under contract for the foreseeable future. Poyer’s business runs through the 2022 season and Hyde’s now through 2023.

The Hyde extension is worth $ 19.25 million, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Media.

Hyde, 30, totaled 70 tackles, one interception and five passes saved in 2020.

The eight-year veteran arrived in Buffalo with coach Sean McDermott in 2017. Hyde received honors from the Pro Bowl and second-placed All-Pro in his first season with Buffalo.

He started 62 of 64 possible games for the Bills in the past four seasons, registering 282 tackles, nine interceptions and two forced fumbles.

Hyde spent four years playing for Green Bay before joining Bills and was chosen in Iowa’s fifth round in the 2013 NFL Draft.
