Coaching Decisions Impact Bills' Roster Against Browns
Full Transcript
The Buffalo Bills are preparing to face the Cleveland Browns at Huntington Bank Field on Sunday, aiming to extend their current three-game winning streak. Heading into this matchup, the Bills are still dealing with some injuries, but their situation is improving.
Defensive tackle Jordan Phillips, kicker Matt Prater, and offensive tackle Chase Lundt have been ruled out, with Lundt being placed on injured reserve, concluding his rookie season. A significant decision by the coaching staff has been to scratch wide receivers Keon Coleman and Gabe Davis, leaving only five wide receivers active for the game.
This decision has drawn attention as the team looks to solidify its playoff positioning. In the meantime, kicker Michael Badgley has been promoted from the practice squad to take over kicking duties for the day.
Cleveland, sitting at 3-11, has little to play for except pride, with star player Myles Garrett aiming to set a single-season sack record. The Bills' complete inactive list includes wide receivers Keon Coleman and Gabe Davis, kicker Matt Prater, defensive tackle Jordan Phillips, safety Darnell Savage, offensive tackle Tylan Grable, and defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi.
The game is set to kick off at 1 p.m. today.
