‘Buffalo signed 2016 first-round pick Darron Lee to its practice squad last week, and McDermott said it’s not “outside the realm of possibility” to activate the linebacker in Milano’s stead.’

‘”It feels amazing,” Bills safety Jordan Poyer said. “It feels good to be 4-0 in the AFC East, it feels good to come out with a victory at home. It was a grind. We didn’t play the way we wanted to, but we got the victory.”‘

‘Morse was slow to get up after the Bills’ third play of the game but eventually walked off the field under his own power after briefly being looked at by trainers. He left for the locker room shortly after, however, and was quickly ruled out.’

‘Buffalo was one of the first teams to register multiple positive tests during training camp, when five positive results came back during the first week of camp. The team temporarily closed its facility as a precaution. Multiple players registered a positive test in August, as well, including quarterback Josh Allen but they were quickly deemed false positives.’

‘The timing of his release is intriguing, however, given Ford’s current “week to week” status after injuring his knee against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6.’

‘Buffalo has publicly stated its goal of winning the AFC East for the first time since 1995, and in order for the Bills to do so, Allen must return to a level of play comparable to what he showed during the first four weeks of the season.’

‘We may never see either quarterback fully uncork a pass in a real game — both estimate they can throw it at least 80 yards. And with Mahomes ranking No. 2 in the NFL and Allen No. 6 in pass attempts of 20 or more yards since 2018, don’t be surprised to see Monday’s game turn into a showcase of their cannon arms.’

‘”What we haven’t seen yet [in 2020] is [Bills receiver Stefon] Diggs running a curl on the left, and Josh breaks a tackle and rolls to his right,” Palmer said. “And Diggs just takes off toward the goalpost and Josh throws one 78 yards across his body — which is totally doable.’

‘Rookie Gabriel Davis will start in place of Brown while A.J. Klein and Tyrel Dodson will take over for Milano.’

‘Tennessee must register no new positive tests for the next three days for its facility to open Sunday at the earliest.’

‘The former Carolina Panther had practiced with the Bills all week before officially being activated before Saturday’s deadline to do so.’

‘”He’s got ice water in his veins, man,” Bills coach Sean McDermott said. “There’s no moment too big for him. That was true from the very start when we got him here, quite honestly.”‘

‘Despite the team’s rapidly shrinking depth at linebacker, McDermott said it’s too early in the process to consider calling former Bills linebacker Lorenzo Alexander, who retired after the 2019 season. Alexander has previously said he would consider a return if needed but is happy in retirement.’

‘”Obviously, I’m happy that we won a game, I’m also happy the way we won it,” he said. “Those two fumbles early on — I can’t do. When we’re in a position to score points, I can’t take that away from us.”‘

‘Already with 42 yards on three catches up to that point, Brown corralled a low pass from Allen and sprinted untouched into the end zone to put the Bills up 21-0 over the Jets.’
