‘The third-year starter’s 268 yards passing were his second-most in a victory. Taylor won when trailing in the fourth quarter for just the third time. And Taylor did all that with an injury-depleted group of receivers that included Deonte Thompson, who finished with a team-best 109 yards despite being signed on Tuesday.’

‘Just as worrisome are his rushing numbers. Though he has 189 yards receiving on a team-leading 27 catches, McCoy’s combined for just 169 yards rushing in his past four games after gaining 110 in a season-opening 21-12 win over the New York Jets.’

‘Matthews participated fully in practice on Friday after being limited the previous two days. Matthews is making his way back from the injury. The receiver underwent thumb surgery after being injured in Buffalo’s Week 4 win over the Atlanta Falcons.’

‘”I’ve had a lot of opportunities, whether through injuries or weird circumstances,” he said. “Hopefully, it’s not really true, but it sure does seem to happen an awful lot.”‘

‘The Bills did not disclose the nature of Adams’ injury.’

‘QB Tyrod Taylor is 1-11 when attempting 30 or more passes and 2-16 when Bills trail by four or more at any point of game.’

‘Taylor refers to the team’s 3-2 record to acknowledge it’s time for the Bills and himself to begin “separating from the pack.” That process starts on Sunday, when Buffalo returns from its bye week to host the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-3).’

‘Buffalo also shuffled its practice squad by signing safety L.J. McCray, and releasing offensive lineman Jordan Mudge and defensive end Marquavius Lewis.’
