4 Buffalo Bills to watch in Week 12 against the New Orleans Saints
Matt Breida
One player that can help make Josh Allen’s job a little easier is running back Matt Breida. The veteran running back hasn’t seen much playing time to start the year but in the past two games has looked like the best running back on this team.
In those two games, Breida has 117 total yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns while playing only 26 total snaps. On Wednesday, Sean McDermott was on WGR550 and was asked if Breida has earned more playing time and was very straightforward:
Sean McDermott says “Yes” when Howard asks if Matt Breida has earned more touches in this offense.
