The Bills also placed wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) on Injured Reserve. He did not participate in any practices this week. Palmer missed five games during the regular season due to injury.

Buffalo elevated defensive end Andre Jones Jr. and running back Frank Gore Jr. from the practice squad for Sunday's game. Jones Jr. has appeared in three games this season, while Gore Jr. will be elevated for the first time this season.
