He says he's ready if the team needs him. Would love for Settle to get the start and play. But it is week 2, don't need any lingering injuries for the playoff run they're going to make. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all we know he has an ouchie and they just threw him on the report because he took some reps off in practice. Adam Shefter (ESPN) reported it today. Yes it is his ankle and hopefully he can share time with Shakir and not take a full load of targets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 2 hours ago, Big Blitz said: Crowder only plays the slot. If Davis dresses I expect Shakir to be active and the 2 will split snaps. Depends how hurt he is. Not so. Crowder played about 1/4 of his snaps outside with the Jets. No reason to think Crowder won't play some outside WR. My guess is that if David indeed doesn't play - he might play - we'll see a whole bunch of folks playing outside, varying for different situations and personnel looks. My guess is we see Crowder, McKenzie and Kumerow at different times, with Shakir figuring in more and more as the season progresses. We'll see. But there's no reason to think they won't play Crowder outside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there's no reason to think they won't play Crowder outside. I've seen you reference Crowder playing outside for a minority of snaps with the Jets..........but you do realize that there isn't a slot receiver on every snap. Correct? Crowder has played outside in 12, 21 etc.. because he's always been one of the two best receivers on each team he has been on.........until now. I do expect him to be the Bills first choice to play outside if boo-boo foot can't go but make no mistake, Crowder is and always has been viewed as a slot receiver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not exactly true ..Jerry Hughes had a pretty significant injury last year I believe that he talked about and never appeared on the injury report for it.

Doc Brown Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 My guess is Davis doesn't play given the late addition to the injury report and his history of ankle issues that tend to linger. This coaching staff is pretty conservative when it comes to injuries. If he doesn't go, I expect to see a lot of Kumerow as he's the Bills second best blocking WR behind Davis. The rest of the reps will pry be a mixture between Crowder and Shakir. Diggs will be targeted a lot. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't speak to the injury you're referring to, but if the Bills didn't report it and the league didn't punish them for failure to do so then it probably wasn't you think it was.. "With the practice report, all players who have reportable injuries must be listed here, even if the player takes all the reps in practice, and even if the team is certain that he will play in the upcoming game." So there's two possibilities I guess 1. It wasn't a reportable injury (which what a 'reportable' injury is pretty vague). There's all kind of crazy rules like some injuries have to be reported for 'key' players or player that would have increased media interest, but wouldn't have to be reported for you 3rd running back who may or may not be active. 2. They don't have to report it every single day. It's 3 days before the game for the practice report and a game status report 1-2 days before the game(depending on the day they play) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the reps will pry be a mixture between Crowder and Shakir. Diggs will be targeted a lot. It will be a Kumerow / McKenzie / Shakir / Knox jobshare wide based on what they showed us in pre-season game 2 and week 1. My guess is that break down something like: Kumerow 40% McKenzie 25% Shakir 25% Knox 10% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
machine gun kelly Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 13 hours ago, DJB said: I was thinking more of like this.. It’s not definite so we might be ok. We have a lot of depth at WR, and even Oliver for one week isn’t that big of a deal. I’m just holding out hopes we have Settle back if possible. If it’s a choice of hold him out and the calf is fine for the rest of the season, ok, but we brought him in to combat Henry, Indy, the Cheats run game. Jones is even better than Settle so we should be ok. In a perfect world you’d rather have Settle out for the high flying passing teams. Just bad luck. If we can get Davis and Settle out in a pitch count, maybe that could work. If not, it will be most likely Diggs, McKenzie and Crowder alternating, and maybe Shakir. Cook may be given a chance to redeem himself, and use him as a short passing option. Leave the up the middle stuff to Singletary. Knox will get a lot of time for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I’ll be very surprised if Gabe doesn’t play Monday night.
