Jon Feliciano

The Buffalo Bills knew the absence of Jon Feliciano was going to be big for their offensive line. However, against the Patriots it was magnified just how much they missed their starting right guard from last year.

The return of Feliciano couldn’t have come at a better time as he started the game replacing Cody Ford at left guard but had to shift to center after the Bills’ offense opening drive when Mitch Morse left with a concussion.

Even with all the shuffling, the offensive line had one of their best games of the season in terms of pass protection as well as blocking for the run. The return of Feliciano has to be a big contributing factor here.

The versatility of Feliciano is something that should help this team as they navigate the next few weeks through injuries to other starters on the offensive line.
