The Buffalo Bills are a little banged up heading into their Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. Earlier this week, wide receiver Keon Coleman was ruled out which was no surprise. However, this past Friday, the Bills learned that second-year tight end Dalton Kincaid would also be inactive due to a knee injury.
Two weapons are not available for the Bills which means we could easily see someone like Khalil Shakir or even James Cook take on the heavy role in the passing attack. Throughout this week, offensive tackle Spencer Brown has been dealing with an ankle injury and was listed as a true questionable going into this game. Brown is officially out for this game and the offensive line takes a bit of a hit on the right side.
With some good news, Mike Garafolo reported that Amari Cooper will be active for the first time since Week 8 so Josh Allen gets one of his big playmakers back in the starting lineup.
Buffalo Bills final inactives:
-WR Keon Coleman
-TE Dalton Kincaid
-OL Spencer Brown
-CB Kaiir Elam
-OL Will Clapp
-LB Edefuan Ulofoshio
While it isn’t the worst injury report that Bills fans have had to endure, losing key offensive players is going to hurt them at some point in this game. Offensive coordinator Joe Brady will need to dial up some magic in order to rattle this tough Kansas City defense.
Kansas City Chiefs final inactives:
-DE Charles Omenihu
-RB Isiah Pacheco
-RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire
-OL C.J. Hanson
-OT Kingsley Suamataia
-DT Marlon Tuipulotu
-DE Cameron Thomas
Pacheco will more than likely be ready to go next week but the Chiefs have decided that he will need an extra week to come back off of the IR. However, Kareem Hunt is no joke in the backfield. He is a downfield runner and can do some damage against this Bills defense.
