Overview
- Coach Sean McDermott confirmed TE Dalton Kincaid will miss Sunday with a right hamstring injury; he leads Buffalo with four receiving touchdowns and has 448 yards.
- McDermott said WR Khalil Shakir is expected to be cleared for contact after ankle and rib issues and practiced Friday without a noncontact jersey.
- WR Joshua Palmer is set to return from knee and ankle injuries, and Josh Allen said Palmer’s route running should add needed juice to the passing game.
- Buffalo signed Mecole Hardman to the practice squad with a possible elevation under consideration, and the team expects practice-squad WR Gabe Davis’ return to on-field work soon.
- DT Phidarian Mathis was also ruled out with a shoulder injury, while the Buccaneers ruled out WR Chris Godwin and RB Bucky Irving.
