UPDATE: The Buffalo Bills face crucial roster decisions as they prepare to take on the Cleveland Browns today at 1 p.m. ET at Huntington Bank Stadium. With a three-game winning streak on the line, Buffalo must navigate an injury report that continues to evolve.
Buffalo’s injury list is improving, but key players will be sidelined. Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips (ankle), kicker Matt Prater (right quad), and offensive tackle Chase Lundt (knee) have all been ruled out. Lundt has been placed on injured reserve, marking the end of his rookie season.
In a surprising move, wide receivers Keon Coleman and Gabe Davis will be healthy scratches for today’s matchup, as the Bills have opted for a narrower roster of five active receivers. This decision comes as wide receiver Mecole Hardman returns from injured reserve, adding complexity to the team’s lineup. Notably, defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi is also among the healthy scratches.
As the Bills aim for their fourth consecutive victory, they will turn to Michael Badgley, who was signed to the practice squad earlier this week, to replace Prater. This is a pivotal game for the Bills, who are just one win away from securing a playoff spot.
On the other side, the Cleveland Browns (3-11) are playing for pride and looking to disrupt Buffalo’s momentum. Star defensive end Myles Garrett is on the verge of breaking the NFL’s single-season sack record, adding further intrigue to this matchup. However, Cleveland will also miss key players including tight end David Njoku (knee), running back Dylan Sampson (hand), cornerback Denzel Ward (calf), and offensive lineman Wyatt Teller.
With playoff implications at stake, both teams will be eager to make an impact. Fans can expect a thrilling showdown as the Bills look to extend their streak and the Browns aim for a major upset.
