‘The Bills signed Bosa to a one-year contract after the veteran dealt with multiple injuries in his final few seasons with the Los Angeles Chargers. The belief was that Buffalo would keep an eye on Bosa’s usage rate to try to keep him fresh for a late-season playoff push. Instead, Bosa has posted a 65% snap count this season – the highest amount of snaps he’s played in a season since 2021.’

The Bills just added a Super Bowl champion cornerback days after he was benched against them
‘Slay recently fell out of favor in Pittsburgh and was a healthy scratch by coach Mike Tomlin last Sunday in the Steelers’ 26-7 loss to the Bills. The Bills are healthy at cornerback at the moment, but Slay provides veteran depth in case they’re hit by an injury at the position.’
Darius Slay once called Josh Allen ‘amazing’ and now he’s joining the QB’s team at the perfect time
‘“I don’t know why a lot of media are giving him bad talk because of turnovers,” Slay said. “You can see he threw the ball 51 times, you know what I’m saying. I don’t know a guy who can throw it 51 times … per game and not turn the ball over. I know you want to take care of it, but if you’re throwing the ball 51 times, you’re going to throw an interception … it’s just going to happen.”‘
Bills CB Christian Benford named AFC DPOW
‘The former sixth-round pick was the third Player of the Week winner for the Bills this season, joining James Cook (Week 8) and Josh Allen (Week 1 & 11), who were awarded AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors earlier this season.’
Shaq Thompson challenging defense to be Dogo mindset a week after the Bills answered his urgent call
‘Inconsistency has plagued the Bills in all three phases — offense, defense and special teams — at various times throughout the season. But no unit has been more mercurial than the defense, which has a habit of flipping from bad to go, not just from game to game, but half to half.’
The best Bills defense for Joe Burrow might be keeping him off the field, avoiding a shootout
‘A Josh Allen-Joe Burrow matchup seems tantalizing on the surface. It seems like a game built for those who like high-scoring games. The duo are among the best passers on the planet, both having a claim to the top spot alongside Kansas City Chiefs star Patrick Mahomes. Throw in a Cincinnati Bengals defense that allows the most points and yards in the NFL and a Buffalo Bills defense that’s been erratic all season.’

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.’
