ICARO Media Group
In a significant update ahead of Sunday's highly anticipated playoff game, the Buffalo Bills have confirmed that receiver Stefon Diggs and linebacker Tyrel Dodson will be available to play against the Kansas City Chiefs. Both players have been given a clean bill of health and do not have any injury concerns.
Diggs, who suffered a foot injury, was unable to practice on Thursday and had limited participation on Friday. However, after thorough evaluation, he has been deemed fit to take the field for what promises to be an exciting clash. Dodson missed last week's game due to a shoulder injury but has made a successful recovery, fully participating in Friday's practice.
Unfortunately, the Bills will be without several key players for the upcoming game. Coach Sean McDermott confirmed during an interview on WGR 550 that receiver Gabe Davis (knee), cornerback Christian Benford (knee), safety Taylor Rapp (calf), and linebacker Baylon Spector (back) will not be available to play. None of these players were able to practice throughout the week.
In addition, linebacker Terrel Bernard (ankle), cornerback Taron Johnson (concussion), cornerback Rasul Douglas (knee), and punter Sam Martin (left hamstring) are officially listed as questionable. Their availability for the game will be determined closer to kickoff based on their progress and further assessment by the medical staff.
The Bills are undoubtedly relieved to have Diggs and Dodson at their disposal as they face off against the Chiefs in a critical playoff matchup. Diggs, who has been a standout performer throughout the season, will be a vital asset for the Bills' offense, providing their quarterback with a reliable target. Dodson's return adds depth and experience to the Bills' defense, bolstering their chances of containing the Chiefs' potent offensive unit.
With the stage set and the players ready, the Bills will be aiming to advance further in the playoffs, fueled by the presence of Diggs and Dodson. The outcome of their matchup against the Chiefs will undoubtedly have a significant impact on their postseason journey.
