Few teams in the NFL have gone through the kind of rash of injuries early in the season than the Buffalo Bills in the first two weeks of the 2024 season.
All-Pro linebacker Matt Milano was gone before playing a game, and All-Pro slot cornerback Taron Johnson only got through a couple of series before being lost last week.
Despite the injuries, Buffalo has found a way to not only survive but thrive against quality opponents victories against the Miami Dolphins and Arizona Cardinals.
Buffalo still needs their top players, though, and in that regard, the latest injury report doesn’t offer much comfort.
“Nothing really changed on the injury report,” Bills head coach McDermott said.
Whenever Johnson does return to the lineup, he’ll return to a defense that has found a way to dominate on their own merits overall. It also helps that of the entire group, Buffalo’s starting defensive line hasn’t exactly hit a wall in the injury department.
