Team news: Buffalo Bills | Page 24

Rivera is hopeful that after the bye, Washington may be able to activate tight end Logan Thomas off injured reserve (hamstring) and return a number of starters, including right guard Brandon Scherff (knee), wide receiver Dyami Brown (knee), right tackle Sam Cosmi (ankle), cornerback William Jackson III (knee) and receiver Curtis Samuel.

Seals-Jones had just a 2-12-0 line last week after three solid games in a row with Thomas on IR. Now could be the time to take a shot on Thomas if he's on your wire and you're in need of TE help. Samuel has been dealing with a groin injury since spring, the story pointed out and could also be a stash option with Washington on a bye this week.

McDermott calls Dawson Knox day-to-day with his surgically repaired hand.

Knox could return to practice this week but his status for Week 9 is still up in the air. The Bills play the Jags, so there wouldn't appear to be a need to rush Knox back into action this week.

Saleh said the Jets didn't put Zach Wilson on IR because they believe he'll be able to practice before the Buffalo game.

The Jets think Wilson can practice even if he's not ready to play yet and he wouldn't have been able to practice that week had he gone on IR. White will play on a short week in Week 9, but it sounds like Wilson at least has a chance to play in Week 10 - a tough matchup against the Bills.

Jets HC Robert Saleh announced Sunday that QB Mike White will start for the Jets on Thursday against the Colts.

This comes as absolutely no surprise after White threw for 405 yards and three touchdowns in New York’s big upset of the Bengals. Who would have thought the Jets offense would stay on track, if not look better, with Mike White rather than Zach Wilson? Football is quite the game. It’s a short week for the Jets and Colts in what should be a rather interesting matchup.

WFT WRs Curtis Samuel (groin) and Dyami Brown (knee) will miss Week 8's game against the Denver Broncos. WR Cam Sims (hamstring) is questionable.

Look for Terry McLaurin and Ricky Seals-Jones to lead the team in targets with Milne and Humphries contributing.

Jets HC Robert Saleh told reporters Friday that RB Tevin Coleman (hamstring) will miss Week 8's game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

After a late-week injury ahead of Week 7, Coleman will now miss his second consecutive game.

WFT WRs Terry McLaurin (ankle), Curtis Samuel (groin), and Dyami Brown (knee) did not practice Wednesday.

McLaurin will have limited practice reps each week as long as he is injured, but is expected to play. Samuel and Brown are less likely to play.

Bills TE Dawson Knox (broken hand) will not play Week 8 against the Miami Dolphins. Tommy Sweeney will start.

Sweeney got a touchdown Week 6 after Knox was injured and has some appeal as a streamer against Miami. The Dolphins allow 10.1 fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends in half-point PPR formats.

Jets QB Mike White will start Week 8 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Josh Johnson will be his back-up as it is unlikely Joe Flacco is active (personal). Flacco will practice Friday.

Unless every QB is taken in your Superflex/Two-QB leagues, do not roster Mike White with any expectations.
