Key Highlights

  • She is a graduate of the University of California, Berkeley. Follow on XEmailPrintORCHARD PARK, N. Y.
  • As the Buffalo Bills prepare to head to Denver for the divisional round of the AFC playoffs on a short week, the team has some positive direction on the injury front and some significant setbacks. For the second straight year, wide receiver Gabe Davis suffered a major left knee injury, this time a torn ACL, coach Sean McDermott said Monday. Davis returned to the Bills this season after he played 10 games with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2024 before suffering a torn meniscus in his left knee.
  • He was able to return to the field with Buffalo in Week 11, playing in six regular-season games and Sunday's wild-card win at Jacksonville. Buffalo will also be without starting safety Jordan Poyer on Saturday after a hamstring injury kept him out of the second half Sunday.
  • Rookie Jordan Hancock played in his place, but the Bills have rotated players at the spot because of injuries."It was good to get [Hancock] the reps he got and did some really good things out there, especially for a young player that hasn't played a ton, in terms of consistently back there," McDermott said.
  • "He's been in certain packages for us, but he did a good job."Elsewhere, McDermott said the Bills will open the practice windows of defensive tackle Ed Oliver and wide receiver Curtis Samuel. Oliver has been on injured reserve since Oct.
