The Buffalo Bills have a laundry list of injured players entering today’s pivotal matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Head coach Sean McDermott ruled out four players on Friday, and one of them, wideout Curtis Samuel, has since been placed on injured reserve. That means that he won’t appear on today’s list of inactives, because he’s already been removed from the 53-man roster.
Buffalo already had an open roster spot, but a flurry of moves followed this weekend. They signed wideout Gabe Davis to the 53-man roster and activated offensive tackle Tylan Grable from injured reserve. They also elevated two players,...
