Overview
- Coach Sean McDermott ruled tight end Dalton Kincaid out with a right hamstring injury and listed him week-to-week after he exited the Week 10 loss to Miami, as Buffalo seeks to rebound from a season-low 13 points.
- McDermott said replacing Kincaid will take a collective effort, with Dawson Knox and Jackson Hawes expected to take on larger roles.
- Defensive tackle Phidarian Mathis was also ruled out with a shoulder injury.
- Wide receiver Khalil Shakir was expected to be cleared for contact and practiced fully Friday after ankle and rib issues.
- Buffalo adjusted its pass-catching depth, with Joshua Palmer set to return, Mecole Hardman signed to the practice squad, and Gabe Davis saying he is ready if elevated, while Tampa Bay ruled out Chris Godwin and Bucky Irving.
