Kryk: Patriots’ Tom Brady now winningest ‘Buffalo’ QB this century

Buffalo Bills QB Nathan Peterman might have to start Sunday vs. Bears
‘At that point, Anderson would need to pass another test with doctors after participating in practice(s) before ultimately being cleared to return to both practice fully and as a potential participant in a game. With all of the steps that players need to go through to pass through the protocol, having only five days complicates the process for Week Nine.’
Buffalo Bills sign WR Terrelle Pryor
‘Pryor joins a wide receiver room that has been searching for answers through the first half of the season, with both Kelvin Benjamin and Zay Jones being the primary targets for whichever Bills quarterback started that week.’
