The Buffalo Bills are set to face off against the Miami Dolphins on Prime Video's first Thursday Night Football game of the year. Both teams are heading into the exhibition with a Week 1 win under their belts, so be prepared for pundits to overreact on Friday to whoever snags their first loss of the season after the game. But, before we get there, how about we set the scene with a Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins injury report?
During a recent interview with Buffalo sports radio WGR550 on Wednesday (Sept. 11), Bills head coach Sean McDermott issued an injury report for the squad.
McDermott reassured fans that QB Josh Allen is good to play despite having his left hand wrapped up and checked out after the Bills' Week 1 win against the Arizona Cardinals. The team's doctors medically cleared Allen to play in the primetime game, with Sean McDermott telling the radio show, " is so physically and mentally tough. Trainers have done a nice job."
Meanwhile, CB Taron Johnson and DE Dawuane Smoot, who injured their forearm and toe, respectively, have been ruled out of the game. Coach McDermott also said that DE Javon Solomon, who has been sidelined with an oblique injury, was listed as doubtful for the rivalry game.
For the other players on Buffalo Bills' injury report, coach McDermott stated that, "The rest are good to go."
As for the Miami Dolphins side of injuries, there have been a couple key changes to watch for. Ian Rapoport, NFL Network's National Insider, reported that star RB Raheem Mostert has been ruled out of the exhibition game with an injury involving his chest. Mike McDaniels gave a McDaniels-esque update on RB De'Von Achane, who was dealing with an ankle injury, and simply said, "We'll see"—in other words, he will be a game-time decision.
Fans can catch the Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins rivalry game at 8:15 PM EST on Prime Video.
