Top Bills News

Bills' Bradley Chubb: Produces in home win
Chubb logged four tackles (two solo), including 1.5 sacks, in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.
Chubb played just 40 of the Bills' 65 defensive snaps. The veteran pass rusher made good use of his snaps, getting to Jared Goff twice and assisting the team in defending Lions star running back Jahmyr Gibbs throughout the contest.

Bills' Cole Bishop: Plays all snaps after questionable tag
Bishop logged six tackles (five solo) in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.
Bishop entered game-day listed as questionable with a groin injury. The safety only logged limited practice sessions leading up to the game during a short week but managed to play all 65 defensive snaps in the contest. The third-year player out of Utah has become a versatile staple of the Bills' defense, frequently being moved toward the line of scrimmage and out wide when necessary.

Bills' Christian Benford: Leads team in tackles
Benford logged eight tackles (five solo) and two passes defensed during the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.
Benford led the Bills in tackles on the night, with linebacker Dorian Williams coming in second with six. Benford did yield a touchdown to Amon-Ra St. Brown at the start of the third quarter despite sticking tight to the wide receiver on a quick slant route. The team's primary outside cornerback played 64 out of the 65 defensive snaps over the course of the night.

Bills' Terrel Bernard: Plays wire to wire in win
Bernard logged five tackles (three solo) and a pass defensed in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday night.
The linebacker was limited during Tuesday's practice session with a calf injury, but he played all 65 snaps in Thursday's victory. The highlight of the defensive captain's night came when he dropped Jahmyr Gibbs in the backfield for a one-yard loss during the second quarter.

Bills' Greg Rousseau: Continues dominant streak
Rousseau logged three solo tackles, including 2.0 sacks, in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Lions.
Rousseau helped the Bills open the new Highmark Stadium in style, sacking Jared Goff twice and hitting him four times en route to the team's first regular-season win in the building. Rousseau's 4.0 sacks through two games in defensive coordinator Jim Leonhard's 3-4 defense already match half of the veteran linebacker's top single-season sack tally (8.0 in 2022 and 2024).

Bills' Jackson Hawes: Another quiet game Thursday
Hawes accrued zero targets during Thursday's 41-31 victory over Detroit.
Hawes started Thursday and played in 37 of the team's 74 offensive snaps, adding seven on special teams. However, the 25-year-old went without a catch (or target) for a second consecutive game. Hawes finished the 2025 campaign with 16 catches for 187 yards and three touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. Although there's a chance he will find the end zone this season, he'll likely have an uphill battle doing much more than blocking while Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox are healthy ahead of him.

Bills' Ray Davis: Limited to kick returns Thursday
Davis returned one kickoff for 31 yards during Thursday's 41-31 win versus the Lions.
Davis logged just eight offensive snaps in Week 2 despite Ty Johnson (hamstring) being inactive, and he did not record any carries or receptions. It appears unlikely he'll have much fantasy utility in the near future unless starter James Cook misses time.

Bills' Dawson Knox: Finds end zone in TNF victory
Knox caught both of his passes for five yards and a touchdown during the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.
Knox was on the field for 56 of the Bills' 74 offensive snaps to mostly serve as a run blocker, though he was found by Josh Allen for a one-yard touchdown pass early in the second quarter to give the Bills a 21-0 lead. Dalton Kincaid is off to a hot start to the year, but Knox is a dark-horse candidate to see an uptick in targets from Allen if DJ Moore (shoulder) were to miss time. Up next for the Bills is a Week 3 home tilt Sunday, Sept. 27 against the Chargers, who allowed a 9-95-1 line on 12 targets to Trey McBride in a Week 1 loss to the Cardinals.

Bills' DJ Moore: Injury not considered serious
Moore (shoulder) is believed to have sustained an AC joint sprain in Thursday's victory over the Lions, and although "it's not a serious injury" he is uncertain for Week 3., Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Head coach Joe Brady did not provide a postgame update on Moore after he left Thursday's contest in the second quarter, but more details are now available, and it appears Moore is not facing any sort of extended absence. He will have over a week to rest and recover before the Bills square off against the Chargers, and if he's unable to go by then that will mean more snaps for Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman and Joshua Palmer.

Bills' Joshua Palmer: Finds end zone again
Palmer caught one of three targets for a 43-yard touchdown in Thursday's 41-31 win over the Lions.
Palmer didn't score at all last season in his first campaign with the Bills, but he's now found the end zone in back-to-back weeks. He's hauled in just one pass in each of the first two games, but he could see more looks if DJ Moore's shoulder injury puts him on the shelf for a stint. Palmer, Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman would likely work as the main wide-receiver trio if Moore can't suit up in Week 3 against the Chargers.

Bills' Khalil Shakir: Records 49 all-purpose yards in win
Shakir brought in three of six targets for 38 yards and returned one kickoff for 11 yards in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.
Shakir played a complementary role once again, and although he did finish tied for second in targets on the Bills, he was only third in receptions and fourth in receiving yards. He's seen Dalton Kincaid take on a much bigger role in the passing game over the first two games of the season, but the wideout is still averaging 6.0 targets over that same span and could be due for a boost in workload if DJ Moore misses any games with the shoulder injury that knocked him out of Thursday's contest late in the second quarter. Shakir will next take aim at the Chargers defense in a Week 3 home matchup on Sunday, Sept. 27.

Bills' Keon Coleman: Spike in production during win
Coleman brought in all six targets for 63 yards in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.
Coleman benefited from the late second-quarter exit of DJ Moore (shoulder), finishing the game second in receptions and receiving yards for the Bills while also tying for runner-up status in targets. The oft-maligned 2024 second-round pick encouragingly flashed steady hands as well throughout the night, and Coleman will be in line to continue in an enhanced role in a Week 3 home matchup against the Chargers on Sunday, Sept. 27 if Moore is forced to sit out the contest.

Bills' Dalton Kincaid: Continues explosive start to season Thursday
Kincaid brought in seven of eight targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions on Thursday.
The star tight end put together a fitting encore to his season-opening 5-130-0 line against the Texans, setting the pace for the Bills in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night. Kincaid repeatedly got into the second level of the Lions defense during the high-scoring victory -- including on his 16-yard scoring grab late in the first half -- and his particularly elevated workload was partly the byproduct of DJ Moore's exit with a shoulder injury shortly before the tight end's touchdown catch. Kincaid will remain a vital component of the Bills' red-hot air attack in a Week 3 home showdown against the Chargers on Sunday, Sept. 27.
