Buffalo Bills sign kicker Michael Badgley to practice squad in Week 16

The Buffalo Bills have signed kicker Michael Badgley to the practice squad, just a day after news that revealed incumbent kicker Matt Prater would miss at least Buffalo’s Week 16 road game against the Cleveland Browns. Prater is considered week to week, dealing with a quadriceps injury suffered sometime between the Week 15 game at the New England Patriots and the head coach Sean McDermott’s Monday press conference with reporters.

The 30-year-old Badgley was previously with the Indianapolis Colts this season, having played in seven games before his release. With the Colt, Badgley went 1-of-1 from 20-29 yards, 3-of-3 from...

Buffalo Bills defeat New England Patriots: Week 15 news, game coverage

The Buffalo Bills are now 10-4 after defeating the New England Patriots 35-31 in yet another thrilling second-half comeback. That leaves Buffalo one game back of New England in the AFC East, with just three games left to play in the 2025 regular season.

Entering the matchup in Foxborough, MA, quarterback Drake Maye was widely viewed as the front-runner to win NFL MVP, while Josh Allen was quite a bit further back in the race. Have things changed now that Allen once again put the team on his back to will a second-half win, and on the road against a...

New England Patriots’ collapse vs Buffalo Bills illustrated by penalties

When it came to most of the universe, it felt like the Buffalo Bills were the underdogs heading to Gillette Stadium to take on the New England Patriots. Vegas odds gave a slight edge to Buffalo, but there wasn’t much beyond that favoring the Bills. Well, guess what? It looked ugly for the first half and then it got real pretty for Bills Mafia in a hurry. It felt like the Patriots just completely collapsed, and it was glorious.

There’s a great bit in a classic episode of The Simpsons where Lisa and Ralph are on a date and Lisa...

For the first time in the 2025 season, the Buffalo Bills have an opportunity to clinch a playoff spot in Week 16 when they face the Cleveland Browns. They can’t do it on their own, but the path is very doable, even if they may have to wait until Monday night.

We need to revisit the AFC standings before we do the math.

Buffalo Bills LB Matt Milano balled out against New England Patriots

The Buffalo Bills entered Sunday’s game against the New England Patriots in need of a win to keep their slim hopes of an AFC East Division title alive. After 24 minutes of play, Buffalo trailed 21-0. Things did not look good. A Bills touchdown stabilized things a bit, but the Patriots answered with a field goal before the half to give themselves a 24-7 lead at intermission.

And then, Buffalo just flipped a switch and dominated the game. The Bills scored on their first four second-half possessions, taking a 28-24 lead and wrestling control of the game back. After allowing...

Bills news: Final thoughts on Buffalo’s Week 15 win vs. Patriots

The Buffalo Bills’ offense looked horrific for much of the first half of Sunday’s pivotal AFC East showdown against the New England Patriots, amassing zero total yards in the first quarter and punting on its first three possessions.

The Bills’ defense didn’t fare much better, allowing quarterback Drake Maye and New England to break off several big plays, perhaps none more demoralizing than TreVeyon Henderson’s 52-yard touchdown run that put the Patriots up 21-0 with 5:53 remaining in the opening half.

But like they did during last week’s rally from a double-digit deficit, quarterback Josh Allen and the Bills displayed...

Buffalo Bills injuries: K Matt Prater “week-to-week,” out for Week 16

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott informed reporters Monday afternoon that kicker Matt Prater will be out for Buffalo’s Week 16 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Prater is dealing with what McDermott described as a quad injury, and Buffalo’s kicker will be considered “week-to-week” in the immediate future.

McDermott revealed that he had just discovered Prater’s injury on Monday. Against the New England Patriots in Week 15, Prater went 5-of-5 on extra points during the comeback win. He wasn’t tasked with attempting a field goal, but he did kick for each of the team’s post-scoring (and opening) kickoff plays.

The Buffalo Bills (10-4) once again worked their second-half magic to steal away a huge 35-31 win over the New England Patriots, denying them a “hat and t-shirt game” at Buffalo’s expense. There may be no more dangerous a team than one led by quarterback Josh Allen and trailing at halftime. Though many have been surprised by their first-half struggles.

As with their Week 15 matchup in Foxborough, MA, the Bills enter Week 16 as a road favorite over their AFC opponent. Where last week’s odds represented a lot of uncertainty out of bettors, this week’s numbers tell of a...
