Bills vs. Jets final Week 10 injury report has Buffalo in high spirits

Following an intense Monday night of action, the Buffalo Bills injury report is surprisingly clear. There are consequential players, certainly, but not the 22+ names mentioned a week ago. Now, the team looks to the New York Jets in Week 10.

The AFC East is quickly turning lopsided, and a win vs. the Jets puts Buffalo in an even better spot. Before we get there, however, there's the matter of the Friday injury report, per Bills PR team.

Bills' Week 10 Friday injury report vs. Jets

OL Alec Anderson - Ankle

Game Status: AVAILABLE

Alec Anderson missed MNF against the Vikings with his ankle injury. The Bills' starting left guard's absence was certainly felt against a monstrous Minnesota defense.

For Week 10 against the Jets, Anderson practiced in a limited capacity, but ramped up late in the week. He's good to go for Sunday.

CB Christian Benford - Wrist

Game Status: QUESTIONABLE

Buffalo's top cornerback suffered a wrist injury on Monday Night Football, but returned to the game and finished strong. Despite Christian Benford's limited practice to start the week, he finished strong. Unfortunately, he's still questionable for this weekend.

LB Terrel Bernard - Vet Rest

Game Status: AVAILABLE

Terrel Bernard had another vet rest day to finish the week, but is otherwise uninjured.

T Spencer Brown - Ankle

Game Status: DOUBTFUL

Spencer Brown's back injury is over with, but he suffered an ankle injury in Week 9. A physical game against the Vikings led to some minor dings, and Brown didn't make the field at all after a walkthrough on Wednesday.

Brown is doubtful for Sunday.

T Dion Dawkins- Rib

Game Status: AVAILABLE

After missing Week 9, and failing to practice a single day in the lead-up, Dion Dawkins got on the field in a limited capacity for Week 10. His rib injury, suffered late Week 8 against the Ravens, shouldn't bother him long-term if he recovers well.

Fortunately for the Bills, Dion is back in action after just the third missed game of his career.

DB Sam Franklin Jr. - Shoulder

Game Status: QUESTIONABLE

Bills DB Sam Franklin Jr. went down with a shoulder injury on Thursday, making him a limited participant in practice. He stayed that way, and is questionable for Sunday.

DL Greg Gaines - Calf

Game Status: AVAILABLE

After two weeks on the mend with his calf injury, Greg Gaines returned to practice this week. He was quickly back on track, and will be available this week.

DB Jordan Hancock - Hamstring

Game Status: QUESTIONABLE (Injured Reserve)

The first of two injured reserve players ramping up to their return this week, Jordan Hancock is a sight for sore eyes. The Bills have needed DB help all season; Combined with the Amani Hooker trade, Buffalo might have got their reinforcements.

TE Dalton Kincaid - Ankle

Game Status: AVAILABLE

Where Dalton Kincaid has healed from his Week 6 chest injury, he's dealing with a new ailment now. His ankle was hurt in the fourth quarter on Monday Night Football against the Minnesota Vikings. He returned to the game quickly, but remains lightly hobbled into Week 10.

He did finish the week as a full participant, leading to his available status.

DL Ed Oliver - Vet Rest

Game Status: AVAILABLE

With his injuries sorted, Ed Oliver was off the report all week. He finished practice with only a Friday vet rest day to speak of.

C Connor McGovern - Neck

Game Status: AVAILABLE

The fourth member of the Bills' starting offensive line to own a place on the injury report, Connor McGovern has a new neck injury. His health this season has been a boon, but no longer.

As Week 10 kicked off, McGovern remained limited in practice, but he kicked up and will be available on Sunday.

G Ar'Maj Reed-Adams - Back/Elbow

Game Status: AVAILABLE

Ar'Maj Reed-Adams remains on the Bills injury report, as he has all season. His minor injuries have kept him in treatment, but not affected his play much.

DL T.J. Sanders - Shoulder

Game Status: AVAILABLE

After another healthy week, T.J. Sanders continues to recover well from his shoulder injury. He's good to go.

WR Tyrell Shavers - Knee

Game Status: QUESTIONABLE (Injured Reserve)

For the second straight week, Tyrell Shavers was available for a full week of practice. His ACL seems to be fully healed and, if he's game-ready, he should be active. At a time where the Bills need help at wide receiver, Shavers' possible return is boon for the team.

Bills Injury Report Summary

The Buffalo Bills benefit from a cleaner injury report than last week. The New York Jets will play a better rested team than the Vikings did.

Of the Bills 14 players named on the report, 2 are only vet rest days. Of the 5 players with a listed gameday injury status, 2 are attempting to return from the injured reserve. Truly, a major upgrade from Week 9.

CB Christian Benford may miss the game, but it would be due to an abundance of caution. Against a team like the New York Jets, this is the time to rest him.

DB Sam Franklin Jr. is a true questionable, as little is known about his shoulder injury from practice.

T Spencer Brown is struggling with his ankle injury, but Tylan Grable has filled in admirably this season. Expect him to go again as Brown likely sits.

DB Jordan Hancock and WR Tyrell Shavers are both competitors who could elevate their position rooms this season. The opportunity for them to get on the field is there this week, if they're activated.
