Bills elevate 2 players, including former Vikings CB: Has QB decision been made on Josh Allen?

Buffalo Bills vs. Minnesota Vikings 2022 preview: Keys to the game and Predictions for Week 10
‘The difference in this game is going to be Milano’s return and his ability to limit the Vikings on the ground. If Jefferson has an explosive game, that could be a difference maker. But McDermott and Leslie Frazier usually have something up their sleeves for superstars. I expect this to be a super close game, whether Allen plays or not.’
Von Miller: Odell Beckham Jr. and Bills GM Brandon Beane have had direct talks
‘Miller’s pursuit on social media has been constant, but that is not all he has done in his pursuit of the receiver. In an interview on The Pivot Podcast, Miller revealed that he’s had Beckham Jr. talk directly with Bills GM Brandon Beane.’
Five Takes: Will Allen tough it out against Vikings? Will Bills earn bounce back win?
‘The Vikings’ defense has been a question mark at times this season. While strong in defending against the run, Minnesota has proven vulnerable when defending against opposing passing games, allowing the sixth-most passing yards per game (256.9) of any unit in the league.’
Leslie Frazier keeps it simple in building the AFC's best defense
‘”It was always preached to us, ‘We have to do us better than they can do them,'” said former Bills and current Vikings nose tackle Harrison Phillips. “Nothing exotic. Just, ‘We are going to do our 1/11th better than they do their 1/11th.'”‘
Stefon Diggs and Justin Jefferson, pieces of the same trade, finally meet on the field
‘The rivalry, at this point, seems more about friendly one-upmanship than lingering resentment. “I just think he’s a hell of a player — definitely one of the best receivers in this league,” Diggs said of Jefferson. “What he has done and accomplished in such a short amount of time shows you he’s a special player. It’s hard not to pay attention to him.”‘

Vikings’ Kirk Cousins says Stefon Diggs trade worked out for 'everybody involved' ahead of matchup with Bills
‘”I think it’s one that’s worked out for everybody involved,” Cousins said Wednesday when asked to reflect on the trade. “I think Stefon was wanting a different opportunity, and his production in Buffalo would suggest that’s worked out very well for him.’
Bills don't elevate third QB; Josh Allen in line to be active
‘The Bills elevated running back Duke Johnson and cornerback Xavier Rhodes to the active roster from the practice squad on Saturday. Rhodes provides additional depth with rookie cornerback Kaiir Elam (ankle) listed as doubtful and the uncertainty as to when Tre’Davious White, who has spent the last two weeks as a full participant on the roster, will return from a torn ACL.’
Bills' Josh Allen set to start vs. Vikings after being listed as questionable with elbow injury, per report
‘Another sign that Allen is on track to play Sunday is the fact that the Bills are not elevating backup quarterback Matt Barkley from the practice squad, according to NFL media. Besides Allen, veteran Case Keenum is currently the only other quarterback currently on the Bills’ 53-man roster.’
Bills elevate Xavier Rhodes and Duke Johnson
‘They did not elevate quarterback Matt Barkley, which is significant.’
Opinion: Capaccio: Vikings at Bills: Sal's keys, notes, and stats
‘The Bills will have to figure out a way to slow Jefferson down and force Minnesota quarterback Kirk Cousins to go elsewhere. They do have other weapons, but Jefferson is their go-to-guy and their passing offense runs through him. The Bills will want to take away the Vikings best player and option.’
Thad’s Three Things: Bills vs. Vikings
‘The Bills aren’t desperate to win this game. Their season does not hang on the outcome this weekend. There is no need to risk Allen if he’s not 100%. The only conclusion is the Buffalo medical staff believes he is just that. Ian Rapoport did report that testing Allen’s grip on the ball was a key factor in making him active. There is a small chance for rain in Orchard Park Sunday that could make grip a bit tougher.’
