One Player Doubtful, Four Questionable for Bills Against Jets on Sunday

The Buffalo Bills have listed five players with game statuses ahead of Sunday's matchup against the New York Jets, including four questionable players and one who is doubtful. The biggest concern remains along the offensive line, where right tackle Spencer Brown is doubtful after missing the final two practices of the week.

Brown initially appeared on Wednesday's injury report as a limited participant with an ankle injury before missing Thursday and Friday's practices. His potential absence would be another challenge for Buffalo's offensive line, which has dealt with multiple injuries heading into the divisional matchup.

Cornerback Christian Benford is questionable after returning as a full participant Friday. Benford was limited during the first two practices of the week while dealing with a wrist injury, so his return to full participation is an encouraging development for Buffalo's secondary.

Defensive back Sam Franklin is also questionable with a shoulder injury. Franklin was limited in both Thursday's and Friday's practices after not appearing on Wednesday's report.

The other two questionable players are defensive back Jordan Hancock and wide receiver Tyrell Shavers, both of whom are working their way back from roster designations. Hancock is currently on injured reserve, while Shavers is on the physically unable to perform list. Both have been full participants throughout the week, but the Bills have yet to announce whether either will be activated to the 53-man roster.

There was plenty of positive news for Buffalo on Friday. Offensive tackle Dion Dawkins, who had been limited Wednesday and Thursday with a rib injury, returned to full participation. Alec Anderson also upgraded to full participation after being limited with an ankle injury throughout the first two days. That suggests that both will play, barring a set back, in New Jersey.

Tight end Dalton Kincaid and center Connor McGovern also returned to full participation after being limited earlier in the week. Defensive tackle Greg Gaines, guard Ar'maj Reed-Adams and defensive lineman T.J. Sanders were full participants for all three days.

Linebacker Terrel Bernard and defensive tackle Ed Oliver did not practice Friday, but both were listed with veteran rest designations rather than injuries.

The Bills will now turn their attention to Sunday's game against the Jets. Buffalo will be looking to get as healthy as possible before taking the field, with Brown's status and the potential returns of Hancock and Shavers among the biggest things to watch.
