BillsBeat - October 13, 2024
Bills coach McDermott rules out starting defensive tackle Oliver from playing Jets on Monday night
‘McDermott said he’s hopeful Oliver can return the following weekend, when Buffalo hosts the Tennessee Titans.’
Bills RB James Cook plans to play, DT Ed Oliver out vs. Jets
‘Cook suffered the toe injury during the Week 5 loss to the Houston Texans and did not participate in practice early in the week. Cook was limited in the team’s final practice of the week.’
James Cook injury update: Bills RB expected to play vs. Jets on Monday night despite toe injury, per report
‘Adam Schefter previously reported that Cook will be listed as questionable to play this week, but the plan right now is for him to suit up. Cook rushed for a season-high 82 yards and one touchdown on 20 carries in the Week 5 loss to the Houston Texans. In all, he’s rushed for 309 yards and a career-high four touchdowns in 2024, plus 123 receiving yards and another touchdown through the air.’
Bills get hopeful news on WR Khalil Shakir
‘A large reason why the Bills lacked any passing game was the lack of their top receiver, Khalil Shakir, who missed Week 5 with an ankle injury. However, things are looking up for No. 10 as he looks to get back on the field.’
Bills get great news regarding injured star
‘Despite being listed as questionable on the team’s final injury report for the week, James Cook practiced on Saturday and is expected to play Monday.’
Bills' starting CB knows what to expect from Jets' Aaron Rodgers in Week 6
‘”I played him before, before I was his teammate. It’s different when you’re playing against him and you got the scouting report like this is who he is. Then, actually like seeing in practice, you just understand this is why he’s considered one of the best quarterbacks of all time,” said Douglas, who has assumed the Bills’ CB1 role since being the Packers traded him to Buffalo last autumn.’
Ed Oliver ruled out for Bills at Jets
‘Wide receiver Khalil Shakir, running back James Cook, nickel cornerback Taron Johnson, and defensive tackle Austin Johnson are questionable for the game.’
Fourth children's book by former Bills player
‘The new book titled “Eric Wood Center on What’s Good” is an inspiring children’s story based on Johnson’s former teammate.’

Ryan O'Halloran: Post-concussion, Bills safety Taylor Rapp to wear Guardian Cap over helmet
‘It was the second concussion of Rapp’s career that caused him to miss time. He was injured in the Los Angeles Rams’ regular-season finale against San Francisco in January 2022 and was inactive for three playoff games before returning in their Super Bowl win over Cincinnati.’
Bills-Jets to test ‘new coach bump’ theory
‘Curious how often teams actually win immediately after a coaching change, I looked over the last decade in the NFL (since 2015). Saleh is the 23rd head coach to lose his job during the season since then. Over the previous 22 changes, 13 interim coaches won their debut the following week and nine lost. Considering these are usually bad teams we’re talking about, that’s not a bad win percentage (.591) at all. Of the nine who lost their debut, the last three all lost by three points or fewer, but the previous six lost by double digits.’
NFL/NFLPA chime in on whether Josh Allen actually cleared concussion protocol vs. Texans
‘“The NFL and NFLPA have reviewed the reports from the Unaffiliated Neurotrauma Consultant and Booth Spotters and those reports confirm that the steps required by the concussion protocol were followed in the evaluation and clearance of Bills’ quarterback Josh Allen in last Sunday’s game,” the statement read. “The protocol has been jointly developed and is jointly administered by the NFL and NFLPA. Under that program the parties jointly identify, retain and train the Unaffiliated Neurotrauma Consultants and Booth Spotters.”’
Bills offense looks to clean up errors against a Jets defense that has given them fits
‘Since being hired as the Jets’ coach in 2021, no one has given Allen more fits than Robert Saleh. Allen’s passing yards per game drop by 11, his completion percentage by 10 and he’s thrown more interceptions in six games against Saleh’s defense than he has against other AFC East teams in 13 games over the same time period.’
Setting The Table
‘That table, with the Forestville connection, will be raffled off to all who donate to the cause after the Bills game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Nov. 17. Proceeds from the money raised will go to Chautauqua County Rural Ministry in Dunkirk and JFT, Just For Today, a recovery and support agency for veterans in Harrisburg — where Mike Skelly resides.’
