The Buffalo Bills have a problem at kicker thanks to an injury to Matt Prater.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott announced that Prater, who is dealing with a quadriceps injury, will not play in Week 16 against the Cleveland Browns.

 

Besides a fantasy notification, it's the first I've heard this. What happened?

Let Ray Davis Kick.  He can be the first to kickoff and return kicks, and field goals.  Would be a lot of fun.

I would be.  Does anyone really care about a kicker that much?

It was @Simon. I mean, we can forgo long FGs, but can Davis actually kickoff?

Can you imagine the drama of Justin Tucker kicking the GWFG against the Ravens in the playoffs...
