A.J. Epenesa

After a few weeks of A.J. Epenesa seeing his role grow in this defense, it took a sharp downturn against the Tennessee Titans. While he did register one tackle for a loss he played only four defensive snaps in Week 5.

To make matters worse, on one of those plays he jumped offsides that changed the Titans down and distance from 3rd and 7 to 3rd and 2 at a time the Bills defense desperately needed to hold them to at least a field goal to keep the game within two scores.

At this point, it would not be surprising if Epenesa was inactive for a few weeks as his role continues to decrease.

Dane Jackson

While Dane Jackson was active, he did not get a chance to step onto the field either on defense or special teams in Week 5 against the Tennessee Titans.
