Recovering from pectoral surgery
Hayward is recovering from pectoral surgery and said Tuesday, "I'm doing good. Hopefully, by OTAs and camp, I'll be 100 percent," D. Orlando Ledbetter of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.
Analysis: Hayward started the first six games of 2022 before being placed on IR with what was initially reported as a shoulder injury. The two-time Pro Bowler missed the remainder of the campaign and appears to have undergone surgery, though it's unclear when the procedure took place. If he's healthy, Hayward figures to slot into the starting cornerback spot opposite A.J. Terrell in 2023, but Atlanta may still add a few more pieces to its secondary this offseason.

Makes trip to Charlotte
Hayward (shoulder) traveled with the Falcons for their Thursday night matchup in Carolina, though he was spotted wearing a sling, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: The fact that Hayward traveled with the team suggests that he's made progress in his recovery from the shoulder injury he sustained back in Week 6 versus the 49ers. While the veteran cornerback along with A.J. Terrell (hamstring) continue nursing injuries, Darren Hall, Rashad Fenton and Isaiah Oliver are slated for added reps in the team's secondary.

IR-bound with shoulder injury
Atlanta placed Hayward (shoulder) on its injured reserve list Tuesday, Tori McElhaney of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Hayward was forced out of Sunday's win versus San Francisco early with a shoulder injury, and he'll now have to miss at least the Falcons' next four games as he recovers. Until the two-time Pro Bowler is ready to return, 2021 fourth-rounder Darren Hall should fill in on the boundaries.

Exits with injury
Hayward is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the 49ers with a shoulder injury, William McFadden of the Falcons' official site reports.
Analysis: Hayward's absence will leave Atlanta's defense significantly under-manned after fellow starting cornerback A.J. Terrell (thigh) also exited against San Francisco. As a result, expect Dee Alford, Mike Ford and Darren Hall to step up into bigger roles in this contest.

Seals pact with Falcons
Hayward agreed to terms with the Falcons on a two-year, $11 million contract Thursday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Hayward likely stands to handle a starting role in Atlanta's secondary, opposite A.J. Terrell. Despite the fact that he's heading into his age-33 season, there seems to be little to no reason to worry about Hayward's consistency. The veteran cornerback has only missed two contests in the last eight years.

Active for Week 18
Hayward (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.
Analysis: Hayward was limited during Friday's practice session due to an ankle injury, but he'll be able to play through the issue in Sunday's regular-season finale. He's totaled 12 tackles (eight solo) and two pass defenses across the last five games.

Questionable with ankle issue
Hayward is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chargers due to an ankle injury, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Hayward was absent from the injury report Wednesday and Thursday before working as a limited participant Friday. Keisean Nixon and Desmond Trufant could see more run in the secondary should Hayward be unable to play Sunday.

Ready to play Sunday
Hayward (illness) was removed from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.
Analysis: Hayward was moved to the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday but managed to come off the designation in time for Sunday's bout against the Colts. The veteran cornerback has been a crucial secondary piece in his first year with the Raiders.

Placed on COVID list
Hayward (illness) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday after testing positive for the virus, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Hayward has played nearly every defensive snap since the Raiders' Week 8 bye, but his availability is now in question while on the COVID-19 list. Amik Robertson and Keisean Nixon should see more playing time if Hayward is forced to sit out, especially if Brandon Facyson (illness) also remains on the reserve list.

Joining Raiders
Hayward (hamstring) agreed to a contract with the Raiders on Tuesday, NFL reporter Josina Anderson reports.
Analysis: The terms of the deal remain unclear, but the 31-year-old will join the Raiders after being released by the Chargers in mid-March. Hayward had 42 passes defensed and 11 interceptions while becaming one of the better corners in the league during his first two years with the Bolts, but he failed to maintain that level of play over the past couple seasons. However. Hayward could still provide a significant boost to the secondary in Las Vegas.

Released Saturday
Hayward (hamstring) was released by the Chargers on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: The move clears about $9.75 million off the Chargers cap. Hayward blossomed into one of the league's best corners after joining the team in 2016, earning two Pro Bowl nods while recording 14 interceptions in his five-year stint with the club. That being said, Hayward missed a regular-season game for the first time since 2013, and his deteriorating play over the last two seasons could ultimately lower his market in an offseason embroiled in an unprecedented cap situation.

Ending season on injured reserve
Hayward (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Friday.
Analysis: The two-time Pro Bowl cornerback was forced to exit last Sunday's win over Denver because of a hamstring injury, and the issue is considered significant enough to hold him out for Los Angeles' 2020 season finale. Hayward has been incredibly durable over the course of his NFL career, missing just one game since 2013. A Week 17 absence will extend Hayward's mark to two in that category. The Chargers find themselves with lessened motivation to push him onto the field against Kansas City, having…read more

Exits with hamstring injury
Hayward was forced out of Sunday's game against the Broncos with a hamstring injury.
Analysis: The 31-year-old cornerback corraled his first interception of the season before exiting the game. Tevaughn Campbell should see a steep increase in defensive snaps with Hayward on the sidelines.

Good to face New England
Hayward (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Patriots.
Analysis: The 31-year-old received the questionable tag after practicing as a limited participant Friday, and he'll be available for Sunday's contest. Hayward and Chris Harris should operate as the team's top corners, per usual.

Considered questionable
Hayward (groin) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Patriots.
Analysis: Hayward was unable to practice all week before returning in limited fashion Friday. His return to practice is certainly cause for optimism, but he is still seemingly trending toward a game-time decision. If he is ultimately unable to give it a go, some combination of Tevaughn Campbell and Michael Davis would presumably again see increased roles in his absence.

Set to miss Sunday's game
Hayward (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Bills.
Analysis: Hayward is beginning to see a dropoff in his performance in his age-31 season, but he's still a sturdy starting cornerback. The Chargers may struggle to replace him in a road game against the Bills. Chris Harris (foot) will be back from IR to start opposite Michael Davis, and Tevaughn Campbell should see a major workload as well. Hayward will aim to return in Week 13 against the Patriots.

Injures groin
Hayward suffered a groin injury during Sunday's game against the Jets.
Analysis: Hayward is officially listed as questionable to return Sunday, but he left the field with under five minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. With Chris Harris (foot) still on IR and Brandon Facyson (illness) on the reserve COVID-19 list, Michael Davis and Tevaughn Campbell are currently the Chargers' only healthy cornerbacks.

Ready to face Raiders
Hayward is active heading into Sunday's matchup against Las Vegas, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: Hayward had an injury scare with his calf during last Sunday's meltdown against the Broncos, though he was capable of returning to full participation in practice by midweek. Coach Anthony Lynn described Hayward's availability as a "fluid situation" Friday, but the two-time Pro Bowl cornerback is currently considered healthy enough to suit up for his eighth start of 2020. He'll be tasked with slowing down Las Vegas' Derek Carr, who has thrown to a sterling 14:2 TD:INT on the year.

Questionable for Week 9
Hayward is questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders for non-injury reasons, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: Coach Anthony Lynn said it was a "fluid situation," so Hayward's availability appears to be truly up in the air. Tevaughn Campbell could see a heavily increased role Sunday, especially with Brandon Facyson (illness) also questionable.

Fine after injury scare
Hayward (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Hayward missed the final drive of Sunday's 31-30 loss to the Broncos after he had his calf rolled up on in the fourth quarter, but the veteran cornerback is already at full speed to start the practice week. He'll be good to go Sunday against the Raiders as he looks to add to the six pass breakups he's recorded through seven games.

Had calf rolled up on
Hayward said Monday that he missed the final drive of last week's loss to Denver because his calf was rolled up on earlier in the fourth quarter, Daniel Popper of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hayward's practice participation this week should reveal whether the calf injury is still bothering him. He'll hope to heal up in time to face the Raiders on Sunday.

Absent from injury report
Hayward (undisclosed) practiced without limitations Wednesday.
Analysis: Hayward suffered the injury in the fourth quarter of Week 5's loss to the Saints, but with the team having an extra week to prepare, Hayward won't have to miss anymore game action. Now healthy, expect the veteran to assume his usual starting role at cornerback for Sunday's game against Jacksonville.

Leaves with injury
Hayward missed the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Saints due to injury, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: The Chargers have yet to reveal any details about Hayward's injury, but it was significant enough to force him out for the fourth quarter and overtime. Tevaughn Campbell could see time at corner if the injury is significant.

Leads team in tackles
Hayward recorded a career-high 12 tackles to go with two passes defensed in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Coming into Sunday's game, Hayward's previous career-high mark in tackles (eight) came all the way back in his first season with the Chargers. A bevy of short throws and hand-offs by Joe Burrow in his first career start allowed for Hayward to play closer to the line of scrimmage than he typically does, and he capitalized on it with an influx of tackles. The unique scenario will surely look like an outlier, particularly next week against a dangerous Chiefs offense.

Career low in tackles
Hayward piled together 32 tackles, eight passes defended and two interceptions over the course of 16 games this season.
Analysis: After a 2018 season in which Hayward failed to pick up a single interception, the veteran managed to accumulate two despite a down season overall from the Chargers. Just 32 tackles across 16 games is easily a career worst for Hayward, but it emphasizes how little he was targeted throughout the season compared to the likes of Michael Davis and Brandon Facyson, who both took turns as the No. 2 corner for portions of the year.
