Rotoworld Player News

Matt Milano

BUF Linebacker #58

Bills coach Sean McDermott said Matt Milano (pectoral) won’t practice on Monday.

Milano played only 23 snaps against the Jets before leaving and being spotted with a wrap on his right arm on the sideline. Joe Andreessen played 10 snaps behind Milano and would seem to be the logical replacement. Milano is no longer the star he was in his prime and took a paycut this offseason, so this is not a huge short-term loss for the Bills.
Ed Oliver

BUF Defensive Tackle #91

Bills HC Sean McDermott said Ed Oliver (ankle) won’t practice on Monday.

Oliver missed Week 2’s game against the Jets due to his ankle injury and is at risk of missing a second-straight game with the Bills facing the Dolphins on a short week this Thursday night. It was reported last week that Oliver’s injury was expected to be a multi-week injury, meaning expectations of him suiting up on Thursday should be low.
Josh Allen

BUF Quarterback #17

Bills coach Sean McDermott said Josh Allen (nose) is “good to go” Thursday against the Dolphins.

Not a surprise after he returned to play in-game, but good to hear an affirmative answer on it. McDermott said “his nose looks good to me. It’s always looked good to me.” Allen will be a locked-in QB1 against a Dolphins defense that is redefining what it means to be Down Bad through two weeks.
Elijah Moore

BUF Wide Receiver #18

Elijah Moore caught his only target for 31 yards and added a rushing touchdown in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

The Bills involved Moore far more often this week than they did in Week 1. It may have been that the Jets play more man coverage than the Ravens, but it also could be that the Bills were up early and wanted to get Moore some yardage against his old team. The big catch was on a busted coverage, and the rushing touchdown was a reverse when the Bills were already up 23-3, so we wouldn’t read too much into his fantasy point total.
Khalil Shakir

BUF Wide Receiver #10

Khalil Shakir caught 1-of-2 targets for 12 yards in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

The Bills didn’t need to throw much against the Jets on Sunday, and the Jets used mainly man coverage, which is not as advantageous for Shakir. Both Joshua Palmer and Keon Coleman are better against man coverage, so both players were featured a bit more on Sunday. Expect Shakir to bounce back next week against the Dolphins. We wouldn’t cut him yet.
Keon Coleman

BUF Wide Receiver #0

Keon Coleman caught all three of his targets for 26 yards in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

The Bills only completed 15 passes on the day, so most of the wide receivers had muted efforts. Coleman did look good and made every play that was thrown his way, including a big 14-yard catch that was called back due to a close (but correct) offensive pass interference call. Coleman should be in for a bigger game on Thursday against a beat-up Dolphins secondary.
Dalton Kincaid

BUF Tight End #86

Dalton Kincaid caught 4-of-6 targets for 37 yards in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

Kincaid led the Bills in targets and catches on Sunday. The team played a lot of two and three-tight-end sets and had a big lead early in this game, so this doesn’t feel like normal usage. Dawson Knox had two glaring drops in this game, but unless the coaching staff shows public disappointment with that, it feels like Kincaid will be too snap-limited to provide much better than this.
Joshua Palmer

BUF Wide Receiver #5

Joshua Palmer caught 2-of-3 targets for 47 yards in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

On a day when the Bills had only 179 yards through the air, Palmer’s 47 yards led the team. What’s wilder is that 32 of his yards came on a pass from Mitchell Trubisky when Josh Allen was forced out of the game with a bloody nose. Palmer is the clear third receiver on this Bills offense that also heavily involves its tight ends, so that makes him just a deeper league target in fantasy leagues.
Ray Davis

BUF Running Back #22

Ray Davis carried nine times for 24 yards in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

The Bills ran the ball 43 times on Sunday, so Davis saw almost a quarter of those, but he clearly ran behind James Cook. It’s also clear that he lacks the playmaking of Cook, so the Bills would likely use a committee of Davis and Ty Johnson if Cook were to go down with an injury. That and his lack of a pure red zone role make Davis a backup that you don’t need to hold in shallower formats.
James Cook

BUF Running Back #4

James Cook rushed 21 times for 132 yards and two touchdowns in a Week 2 win over the Jets.

The Bills played plenty of two and three-tight end sets with a plan to beat the Jets on the ground, and it worked. Cook had a beautiful 44-yard touchdown run that included an insane cutback just after midfield. However, the plan that was more important for fantasy managers was a one-yard touchdown run in the second quarter. Cook had a nice run and took the Bills down to the one-yard line. Instead of using Josh Allen to punch the ball in, the Bills turned to Cook to reward him for the earlier effort. If he’s going to keep getting carries that close to the goal line, he should be able to stave off touchdown regression.
