The Buffalo Bills and the Miami Dolphins are 90 minutes away from kickoff, which means that each team has released its inactive list for tonight’s contest. The Bills had already listed a pair of starters on defense as inactive for tonight’s game, and after elevating linebacker Keonta Jenkins and defensive tackle Zion Logue from the practice squad, the Bills will need to name seven inactives for the game in total.
Miami is down a few players, as well, as they are without three players, including two main contributors in their defensive secondary. In addition to the players ruled out for tonight, each team had listed three players as questionable, as well.
Who’s out for tonight’s matchup? Here’s the whole list.
_____________________________________________________________________________
The highest-paid member of the receiving corps is a healthy scratch for the third straight game. Tyrell Shavers and Elijah Moore will remain the active reserve wideouts, with Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Joshua Palmer taking the majority of the offensive snaps.
The rookie is a healthy scratch once again, and he’ll likely remain so unless an offensive lineman is injured. Sedrick Van Pran-Granger, Alec Anderson, and Ryan Van Demark are the backup offensive linemen.
The rookie third-round choice is a healthy scratch again, as Joey Bosa, Greg Rousseau, A.J. Epenesa, and Javon Solomon will be the four defensive ends active tonight.
The veteran is still in a walking boot, so he’s out once again. T.J. Sanders will likely start in his place, with Deone Walker and the aforementioned Zion Logue set to work in with DaQuan Jones as the foursome in the middle.
The veteran linebacker has a pectoral injury, so he’s out for at least tonight. Dorian Williams will start in his place, and if Buffalo goes with a three-linebacker look, I’d expect Joe Andreessen to fill that third spot. However, it will mostly be Williams and Terrel Bernard in the game for Buffalo tonight.
The rookie was not listed with an injury designation after three days of practice, but he was on the injury report due to a shoulder issue he’d been dealing with previously. However, with both Taron Johnson and Cam Lewis ready to go, it’s a healthy scratch this week for Hancock.
The sub corner and special teams standout is a healthy scratch this week, as both Tre’Davious White and Dorian Strong are active with Christian Benford to play outside corner.
