Fantasy Football: 5 Buffalo Bills to start or sit in Week 5
By Brandon Ray
5.) Bills D/ST - Sit
Now before the comments about the sacks and the takeaways start up, remember that Tre’Davious White is gone for the season, making the Bills weaker at secondary. While Von Miller has a chance to come back this week after tearing his ACL last season, it could be on a pitch count if he plays at all.
If the Bills are not able to pressure Trevor Lawrence upfront, this could allow Calvin Ridley, Christian Kirk, or Evan Engram to make a play in the middle of the field. This isn’t to say that the Bills won’t make a play at all against Jacksonville, but with this being a trap game for Buffalo, one little mistake can turn into a horrendous game for the team overall.
Jacksonville is averaging 337 yards per game and while they face their toughest opponent of the year to this point, the Bills also face the task of taking on an offensive team that had a quarterback who can make the big plays inside and outside the numbers.
