Buffalo Bills claim cornerback Darius Slay off waivers
‘In Buffalo, he joins a secondary allowing a league-low 163.2 passing yards per game as well as a 59.5% completion rate. Slay will provide depth behind starting outside corners Christian Benford and Tre’Davious White for a potential playoff run.’
Buffalo Bills DE Bosa listed week to week with hamstring injury, further depleting banged-up defense
‘The 10th-year player was hurt in the second half of Buffalo’s 26-7 win at Pittsburgh on Sunday. It was a game in which Bosa helped turned the tide with a strip-sack of Aaron Rodgers, with Christian Benford returning the fumble 17 yards for a touchdown on the opening snap of the third quarter.’
Bills claim CB Darius Slay off waivers after Steelers release
‘Slay will serve as another veteran presence in the Bills’ cornerback room and could provide insurance and depth. Starting cornerback Christian Benford is coming off a career performance in which he had a fumble recovery touchdown and interception on back-to-back drives en route to being named AFC Defensive Player of the Week.’
Bills adding Darius Slay: Buffalo claims six-time Pro Bowl CB off waivers from Steelers
‘Slay and the Steelers amicably parted ways after Slay was a healthy scratch this past Sunday against — ironically — the Bills. Injuries and inconsistent play limited Slay to just 10 games and nine starts during his lone season in Pittsburgh. He previously spent five seasons in Philadelphia following a seven-year run with the Detroit Lions.’
Bills Claim Darius Slay Off Waivers One Day After Steelers Release
‘Slay now sits on the Bills’ depth chart behind Tre’Davious White. Slay’s first game as a Bill will be on Sunday vs. the Bengals, a team he’s already faced twice this season while with Pittsburgh.’
Joey Bosa injury update is extremely troubling news for Buffalo Bills’ playoff push
‘Bosa exited the Week 13 contest early with what was later diagnosed as a hamstring injury. On Monday, Bills head coach Sean McDermott would only say “we’ll see where that goes” when it comes to Bosa’s Week 14 status.’
Will Dalton Kincaid return in Week 14? Injury update, fantasy advice for Bills TE
‘The veteran tight end did show some progress last week, though, as he was able to log two limited practices before being ruled out. The participation amounted to an upgrade for Kincaid.’
Bills get another disappointing update on $29 million investment
‘Despite the success of the run game in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers where the Bills ran for 249 yards, the passing game has had a rough season. Buffalo has one of the least explosive offenses in the NFL, which makes the signing of Josh Palmer look worse and worse by the week.’
Bills’ Josh Allen named best in entire NFL at this key skill
‘ESPN listed Allen as having the best arm strength in the NFL.’
Josh Allen channels inner Bill Belichick when asked about Steelers DT Cam Heyward
‘“I have a lot of respect for Cam Heyward but we’re on to Cincinnati,” Allen said via Dan Fetes.’
Will Spencer Brown return in Week 14? Injury update on Bills right tackle
‘”I’m pretty close [to returning] I think,” Brown said via Thad Brown. “I’m just doing my rehab every single day in the training room with [the training staff]. Just taking it day by day… I’m gonna put myself in the best position to play. If I can’t Van will be out there doing his thing again.”‘
Dawkins limited as he continues through concussion protocol
‘Left tackle Dion Dawkins, who missed last Sunday’s win over the Pittsburgh Steelers with a concussion, and right tackle Spencer Brown, who was also absent from the game with a shoulder injury, were both listed as limited on the team’s official post-practice injury report.’
Bills claim Darius Slay off waivers from Steelers
‘The Steelers replaced Slay by signing cornerback Asante Samuel Jr. to their 53-man roster from the practice squad. Slay was a healthy scratch this past week in Pittsburgh’s 26-7 loss to the Bills.’
Bills re-sign Andre Jones Jr. to practice squad
‘Re-signing Jones Jr., may be an indication that the team is preparing to be without him when they host the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at Highmark Stadium, providing more depth and possibly needing to elevate someone to the active roster for the game.’
