Forget the bad vibes you might’ve had yesterday, because the Buffalo Bills’ latest injury report dropped, and it’s mostly good news, especially when you stack it up against their Sunday opponents. Almost every player was back on the practice field today, and even better, nearly all of them ditched those red non-contact jerseys. We love to see it!
The Bills Are Getting Back To Full Strength (Mostly)
Let’s talk about who’s trending up for Buffalo. Ray Davis, despite showing up on the injury report for the first time with a hamstring issue, was a full participant, which is a huge relief. Joe Andreesen and Keon Coleman both upgraded from DNP to limited, getting back into the swing of things. TJ Sanders, who’s been recovering from an appendectomy last week, also moved from DNP to limited, which is a good sign considering surgery recovery isn’t a joke. And Deone Walker? He went from limited yesterday to a full participant today. That’s some serious forward momentum for the squad.
Now, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows. Christian Benford is still dealing with that toe injury he picked up in Sunday’s game and isn’t practicing at all. You can absolutely bet he won’t be suiting up this Sunday. Damar Hamlin was limited for both Wednesday and Thursday with a rib injury, which is something to keep an eye on. And DJ Moore? He’s still limited, and he was the only non-QB, non-kicker player rocking a red non-contact jersey. But here’s the kicker: Moore is expected to play on Sunday. The guy just doesn’t miss games, a nine-year veteran who hasn’t been out since 2020 and only twice in his entire career. That’s the kind of toughness you want to see.
Meanwhile, The Patriots Are In A World of Hurt
Over in Foxborough, things are looking grim. The New England Patriots’ injury report is just a parade of bad news. Not a single player listed yesterday improved their status today. Nope, just negative changes. Reggie Gilliam, the former Buffalo fullback, actually got downgraded from limited to a non-participant on Thursday. Ouch. And Channing Canada suddenly popped up as limited with a hamstring injury.
This is seriously rough news for a Patriots defensive secondary that’s already going to be missing Christian Gonzalez on Sunday. Their D-backfield is already stretched thin, and these new setbacks are not going to make life any easier for them.
So, heading into Sunday’s game, the Bills are rolling in with some real momentum on the health front, while the Patriots are just digging a deeper hole. It’s gonna be a wild one, that’s for sure.
