Can Buffalo Bills cornerbacks match up with Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle?

There aren’t many positions that the Miami Dolphins have a clear advantage over the Buffalo Bills but one that does stand out is the Dolphins’ wide receivers against the Bills’ cornerbacks.

The Dolphins move to trade for Tyreek Hill this offseason and pairing him with Jaylen Waddle, who was the sixth overall pick last year, has worked out great through the first two games. Both players had huge games against the Ravens in Week 2 and now Tyreek Hill ranks first in the league in receiving yards (284) and Jaylen Waddle is not far behind at third (240).

For the Buffalo Bills, their trio of cornerbacks that includes Dane Jackson and rookies Christian Benford and Kaiir Elam has done a good job in the early part of the season. However, this week there is a good chance that Dane Jackson is not going to be available after the neck injury he sustained Monday night against the Tennessee Titans.

If Jackson is not able to go, then it will be up to the rookies to try and contain the speedy wide receivers. It is going to be a major test early in their NFL careers.
