Josh Norman

It remains to be seen exactly what Josh Norman is going to be asked to do in this game because the Buffalo Bills top cornerback, Tre’Davious White, did not practice all this week due to a back injury. He was listed as questionable which is a good sign but there is still uncertainty.

As for Norman, he enters this game expected to get his first start with the Buffalo Bills in place of the injured Levi Wallace. However, the question becomes what his responsibilities will be as White would likely draw the assignment of A.J. Brown. If White is not able to go, this would fall on Josh Norman.

As a rookie last year, A.J. Brown had a breakout season and quickly became the team’s top receiver. He has missed the past few weeks due to a knee injury suffered in Week 1 but is in line to return this week.

This will be a tough assignment for Norman but if he is able to limit A.J. Brown, this will give the Buffalo Bills a great chance at a win.
