Starters DJ Moore and Ed Oliver highlight a lengthy injury report as Buffalo navigates critical late-week returns ahead of Sunday's clash with the Las Vegas Raiders.

The Buffalo Bills have five players listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, but the team has yet to rule anyone out on its final injury report.

Cornerback Dee Alford, wide receiver DJ Moore, defensive tackle Ed Oliver, wide receiver Joshua Palmer and defensive tackle T.J. Sanders all received questionable designations heading into the Week 6 contest. Buffalo's final report leaves the door open for each player to suit up, although their availability won't be confirmed until closer to kickoff.

Moore and Oliver are among the biggest names to watch after both missed Wednesday and Thursday's practices. Moore, who is dealing with a shoulder injury, returned to limited participation Friday, giving the Bills a potentially encouraging development heading into the weekend after he missed only the third game of his career.

Oliver also progressed to limited participation Friday after sitting out the first two practices of the week with a knee injury. The defensive tackle missed Buffalo's game against the Los Angeles Rams and could provide a significant boost to the defensive line if he's ready to return.

Palmer remained limited throughout the week with a shoulder injury. The wide receiver missed Monday night's game against Los Angeles, making his questionable designation a development worth monitoring as Buffalo looks to get him back into the lineup. Based on everything from the week, however, it looks as though he's trending towards playing.

Alford, who also missed last week, was limited in all three practices while dealing with an ankle injury. Sanders, meanwhile, progressed from limited participation on Wednesday and Thursday to a full practice on Friday, putting him in a better position heading into Sunday's game.

The Bills also had several players listed on the injury report who finished the week without a game designation. Including many who've been dealing with injuries for multiple weeks.

Cornerback Christian Benford, offensive tackle Spencer Brown, outside linebacker Bradley Chubb, wide receiver Keon Coleman, defensive lineman Landon Jackson, safety C.J. Gardner-Johnson, running back Ty Johnson, outside linebacker T.J. Parker, and guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams all finished Friday as full participants.

Linebacker Terrel Bernard was limited Friday after practicing fully on Wednesday and Thursday. Despite going down to just limited on the final day of practice, he appears good to go this weekend.

Brown, who also doesn't have a designation, left Monday's win with a back injury. Earlier this week he said he was going to play, and that also appears to be the case. 

Buffalo will look to improve to 5-1 when it faces Las Vegas on Sunday. Kickoff is scheduled for 4:25pm ET on CBS.
