‘”It means a lot because he’s a guy who cares about it,” Thomas said, opening his jacket to show off a blue shirt with the words “We Chasing 10K” printed on the front similar to the one McCoy wore this past week. “It’s big for him. I’m glad he’s got it.”‘

‘McDermott says the Bills have not yet made a move to fill Glenn’s spot on the roster. Rookie Dion Dawkins has been starting at left tackle while has been out.’

‘In his ninth season, McCoy has 9,961 yards rushing and is on the cusp of becoming the 30th player to reach 10,000 in a milestone he can hit as early as Sunday, when Buffalo (7-6) hosts Miami (6-7).’

‘”I’m not going to make it about me, and I’m not going to think about it in those terms,” Williams added. “There’s enough trouble in the day of getting ready for the Dolphins and trying to finish this strong and get to where we want to go.”‘

‘Bills have allowed 140 or more yards rushing in five of past six and six contests overall this season.’

‘Coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday that Taylor continues to make progress in recovering from an injury that prevented him from playing in a 13-7 overtime win over Indianapolis last weekend. McDermott says rookie Nathan Peterman will practice on a limited basis, but remains in the concussion protocol after he was hurt in the third quarter against the Colts.’

‘Having already persevered through a major roster purge and persistent questions at quarterback, the Bills now showed they’re capable of braving the arctic elements to remain firmly in a convoluted playoff picture. At 7-6, Buffalo is technically the AFC’s sixth seed. In actuality, the Bills don’t control their own chances due to potential tie-breaking scenarios that would go against them.’

‘McDermott says Taylor showed signs of making progress over the past few days after practicing on a limited basis last week.’

‘McCoy’s touchdown led to the Bills’ sideline erupting in celebration. Some players ran on the field to make snow angels . Others playfully engaged in snowball fights.’

‘”Unbelievable,” safety Jordan Poyer said of the fans. “Our fans are unbelievable to come out here in 20 degrees or minus-20 degrees or whatever it was. But them being out here and supporting us, it’s huge.”‘

‘The Bills expect Kelvin Benjamin (knee), defensive tackle Kyle Williams (groin) and running back Travaris Cadet (concussion) to play against Indianapolis. Cornerback Tre’Davious White was cleared to play Thursday after suffering a concussion Sunday.’

‘”Sometimes I think in this league, fans, they always want the new thing, what’s hot,” McCoy said, before noting how Gore jumped into fifth on the NFL’s career yards rushing list last weekend.’

‘”I’m laying there. He snuck me. My back turned. He could’ve broken my neck,” he added. “I’ve got a son to raise, and all of that. People don’t think of that when they just react.”‘

‘Wearing a black sleeve on his left leg, Taylor had difficulty moving his injured knee backward and sideways during a pre-practice stretching drill. At one point, he was unable to lift his leg high enough to slip back on his left cleat.’

‘Colts have allowed NFL-most 330 points and been outscored 120-28 in fourth quarter.’
