The Buffalo Bills are acquiring safety Amani Hooker and a fifth-round pick from the Tennessee Titans for a second-round selection, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

Hooker has been with the Titans for the last eight years after being selected in the fourth round of the 2019 draft out of Iowa. He's under contract through the 2028 season, having agreed to a three-year extension in 2025.

The 28-year-old has played seven games this season, recording six passes defended and a league-leading five interceptions. Hooker has also allowed just 20 catches on 26 targets for 249 yards with a passer rating of 79.3 as the nearest defender in coverage, according to Next Gen Stats.

Buffalo has been actively searching for defensive back help and made a push to acquire Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker before landing Hooker, reports NFL Insider Jordan Schultz.

The Bills improved to 7-1 on Monday night with a 23-6 win over the Minnesota Vikings, but they rank 29th in passing yards allowed this season.

Tennessee now has two first- and second-round picks in the 2027 NFL Draft after trading Jeffery Simmons to the Chicago Bears a couple of weeks ago. The Titans are 1-7 and last in the AFC South heading into Week 10.
