A key cornerback will not play against the Lions, and two other defenders are questionable. Here's the Bills' injury update.

The Bills gave up 521 yards playing without starting safeties Taylor Rapp (neck/shoulder) and Damar Hamlin (ribs), and starting cornerback Rasul Douglas (knee). Buffalo limped along by activating defensive end Dawuane Smoot and linebacker Baylon Spector from injured reserve and elevating safety Kareem Jackson from the practice squad.

The Buffalo Bills are preparing to take on the AFC East rival New York Jets and future Hall of Fame quarterback Aaron Rodgers in Week 17 NFL action. With a 12-3 record, the Bills are still pursuing the No.

Three other Buffalo defensive players left against New England - linebackers Baylon Spector and Terrel Bernard and cornerback Taron Johnson - but Spector was the only one who didn't return. The Bills re-signed linebacker Nicholas Morrow to their active roster on Monday.

It's a game between two AFC East teams headed in completely different directions as the Jets face the Bills. Here are our staff predictions.

The Buffalo Bills and New York Jets will meet at Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, NY for a Week 17 AFC East grudge match. At stake for Buffalo is sweeping the Jets and improving to 13-3 to stay within a breath of the Kansas City Chiefs and the top seed in the AFC playoff race.
