Bills Fear Torn Biceps for Ed Oliver, MRI Pending After Panthers Win

Buffalo's depleted interior line makes reinforcements before the Nov. 4 trade deadline a pressing priority.

Overview

  • Oliver exited Sunday's 40-9 victory over Carolina late in the second quarter holding his left arm and was quickly ruled out.
  • Multiple outlets citing ESPN's Adam Schefter report the team fears a torn biceps and considers him out indefinitely, with an MRI to confirm the severity.
  • The setback comes shortly after his return from an ankle injury; he has three sacks in three games this season.
  • Buffalo is already thin at defensive tackle with T.J. Sanders and DeWayne Carter on injured reserve and DaQuan Jones dealing with a calf issue.
  • Short‑term options include expanded roles for Larry Ogunjobi and Deone Walker and potential practice‑squad moves as the front office evaluates additions before the deadline.
