The Buffalo Bills entered Week 5 with a three game win streak and looked to continue their success in a game against a Jacksonville Jaguars team that hasn't lived up to expectations early in the season. Unfortunately, the Bills came out flat. The Jaguars would lead the entire game and come away with a 25-20 win in London.

While it wasn't a great performance overall for the team, there were a number of players who stood out against the Jaguars. These five players had great games that kept the game much closer than it should have been while watching the game.

5 Buffalo Bills who impressed in Week 5 against the Jaguars

A.J. Epenesa

The Buffalo Bills entered this game without their top pass rusher after Greg Rousseau was ruled out with a foot injury. They were getting Von Miller back for the first time since suffering a torn ACL last season but he was entering the game on a pitch count.

The defense was going to need someone to step up to help the pass rush and that player was A.J. Epenesa. The former second round pick took away at least three points and could have been more, away from the Jacksonville Jaguars with a strip sack at the end of the first half with the Jaguars inside the red zone.

He finished the game with four total tackles, one tackle for a loss, two sacks, and three passes defended. Epenesa has made some big plays throughout the first part of the season, like a pick six against the Washington Commanders, and the Bills will need more of that moving forward.
