Buffalo Bills

The Bills' D/ST logged four sacks and allowed 31 points in Thursday night's win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Buffalo's defense looked good at the start of the game on Thursday night, but they weren't able to sustain that energy throughout and ended up allowing 31 points over the course of the night. This unit has some talent but will have a tough schedule coming up for the next three weeks at least, so fantasy managers shouldn't put much trust in them at this point in the season.

Tyler Bass went 5-for-6 on his extra-point attempts in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Bass ended Thursday night's game with a total of five points, but he missed one of his extra point attempts in this game, which was less than ideal. He should remain a solid fantasy option at the kicker position moving forward.

Dawson Knox caught two passes for five yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran tight end wasn't very involved as a pass catcher on Thursday night, but he was still able to leave his mark by catching a touchdown against the Lions. Dalton Kincaid is the clear top receiving TE for this team right now, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect Knox to be relevant at any point this season.

Joshua Palmer hauled in 1-of-3 targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran wideout wasn't very involved on Thursday night, but he was able to catch one of his three targets and take it 43 yards to the house for a touchdown. Still, fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to be fantasy relevant for the foreseeable future, even if DJ Moore (shoulder) misses time for Buffalo.

Keon Coleman caught six passes for 63 yards in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Coleman was able to capitalize on Buffalo's momentum on Thursday night. He finished the game with 63 yards in a win over the Lions, which is the highest total that he has accumulated since Week 1 of last season. He may see more work than usual for a few weeks if DJ Moore (shoulder) has to miss any time.

Ray Davis did not see a single target or carry in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Davis was a complete non-factor on Thursday night. He saw no opportunities against the Lions and played just ten snaps overall. James Cook III remains the clear bellcow back for Buffalo right now, and that's unlikely to change at any point this season barring injury.

Khalil Shakir caught 3-of-6 targets for 38 yards in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran wideout wasn't very impactful on Thursday night, catching just three passes for 38 yards on a night where Buffalo's offense couldn't be stopped. He isn't expected to be a strong fantasy option for the foreseeable future, although he may be primed for more work than usual for a week or two if DJ Moore (shoulder) has to miss time.

Dalton Kincaid caught 7-of-8 passing attempts for 95 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Kincaid's great start to the season continued on Thursday night. He was Buffalo's leading receiver against the Lions and was able to get into the end zone on one of his seven catches, which left him with a great fantasy total. It looks like he may be in the midst of a big breakout season right now, so long as he and QB Josh Allen stay healthy for the majority of the season.

James Cook III rushed the ball 21 times for 135 yards and a touchdown in Thursday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Buffalo's offense was firing on all cylinders on Thursday night, and that included Cook. He rushed for 135 yards at an efficient clip of 6.5 yards per carry on the night and was able to get into the end zone on one of those carries. He wasn't very involved in the passing game, but he still dominated the backfield and was the only running back to receive even a single opportunity for the Bills.

Josh Allen completed 20-of-31 passing attempts for 248 yards and three touchdowns while adding 69 yards and two touchdowns on the ground in Sunday night's 41-31 win over the Detroit Lions.

Fantasy Impact: Allen had an insane showing on Thursday night. He totaled over 300 yards and scored five total touchdowns en route to a big win over the Lions in primetime, all while protecting the ball and committing zero turnovers. He has been absolutely dominant through the first two games of the season and is pacing to be one of, if not the most valuable individual player that anyone can roster at this point.

DJ Moore (shoulder) has been diagnosed with an AC joint sprain and his status is day-to-day. A source said “He has a chance to play next week, but it’s not a lock.” (Source: Adam Schefter on X)

Fantasy Impact: Moore was injured while trying to catch a pass in the endzone, falling hard on his shoulder as a defensive back rolled over top of him. At first the injury looked serious, but he was able to sit up and walk off the field under his own power. More than likely Moore will miss at least a week, but if there’s any silver lining, the Bills get a mini-bye here thanks to the Thursday night game. Once he returns he will go back to being a featured target in the Bills passing attack. But if he misses time, Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir will be the primary targets for Josh Allen, but don’t sleep on Keon Coleman, who saw some sneaky good usage once, and even before, Moore was knocked out.

T.J. Sanders (illness) is inactive for the Bills game against the Lions on Thursday. (Source: Buffalo Bills on X)

Fantasy Impact: Sanders went down with an illness earlier this week and won’t make it back in time for the Bills home opener. Landon Jackson is next in line for snaps, so expect an increased role on his part.

Skyler Bell (healthy scratch) is inactive against the Lions on Thursday. (Source: Buffalo Bills on X)

Fantasy Impact: Bell missed the Bills opening contest, and will now miss their home opener. He’s going to have to work hard to crack the receiver rotation in Buffalo.

Ty Johnson (hamstring) is inactive for the Bills game against the Lions on Thursday. (Source: Buffalo Bills on X)

Fantasy Impact: Johnson missed the Bills Week 1 contest against Houston, and is inactive yet again. He will rest up and hope to be available for Week 3. In his absence, Ray Davis will handle primary RB2 duties.

Ed Oliver suffered a hip injury in pregame warmups for the Buffalo Bills and has been ruled out Thursday night according to Adam Schefter. (Source: Adam Schefter on Twitter )

Fantasy Impact: Oliver’s injury will be further evaluated, as the star defensive tackle’s absence will leave the Buffalo defense with out a key interior presence against the Lions Thursday night.

Jordan Hancock (quad) is set to play in Thursday's game against the Detroit Lions. (Source: Buffalo Bills PR on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: As expected, Hancock will be good to go for Thursday night's game after dealing with a quad injury earlier in the week. Buffalo's defense will need all the help they can get in order to slow down Detroit's elite offense in this primetime matchup.

Cole Bishop (knee/groin) is listed questionable for Thursday night's game against the Detroit Lions. (Source: Buffalo Bills PR on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: It looks like the Bills may be without one of their starting safeties on Thursday night as he continues to work through a pair of injuries. His absence would be less than ideal in a matchup against a highly talented Detroit offense.

Bradley Chubb was a full participant on Monday's estimated practice report. (Source: Buffalo Bills PR on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Chubb should be good to go despite it being a short week for Buffalo.

Terrel Bernard was estimated as a limited participant in practice on Monday. (Source: Buffalo Bills PR on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Bernard is on the injury report with a calf issue. He is likely to play on Thursday against the Lions.

Greg Dortch has been elevated to the Bills' active roster ahead of their game against the Texans. (Source: Ian Rapoport on X)

Fantasy Impact: Dortch will be a depth option, but he will likely see little work, as he is buried on the depth chart. He's been productive when given the opportunity in the past, but it will be hard to find that in Buffalo.
