Team news: Buffalo Bills

Bills HC Sean McDermott said "the soreness has dissipated" and said QB Josh Allen should play without any limitations vs. the Eagles. Allen has been dealing with a foot injury.

It's a tough matchup against this Eagles defense, but we would still expect Allen to use his legs when necessary, even with that lingering foot issue. Conisder him a top-10 option in the Fantasy Champtionship.

Vikings ruled out RB Jordan Mason and TE T.J. Hockenson, amongst others, for the Christmas Day game against Detroit.

We'd like to think this would equate to a massive workload for Jones, but with no Playoff implications for the Vikings on the line, we could see a rotation with Scott and Johnson. Jones can still be considered an RB2, just closer to the RB3 fringe than the top-12.

Oliver is techincally in the TE streaming realm, but you can probably find yourself a better option on the WW.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is day-to-day with the right foot injury he suffered in the team's win over the Cleveland Browns on Sunday, coach Sean McDermott said on Monday.

Allen did not miss a play during the game but did leave the field before halftime and had an X-ray done on his foot. He was cleared to return to the game.

When asked if he anticipated Allen being available for Sunday's game against the visiting Philadelphia Eagles, McDermott said, "As far as I'm aware, yes."

Allen may be limited during practice this week. McDermott added Allen is sore, but that there were no setbacks and that he is not aware of any further testing needing to be done, according to the story. It's good news for Allen owners, assuming they survived his fantasy performance from last week and moved on in the playoffs.

The Buffalo Bills are signing kicker Michael Badgley to the practice squad, the team announced Tuesday. He will wear No. 32 with the Bills.

Badgley last appeared for the Colts earlier this season where he played in seven games and went 10 for 11 (91%) on field goal attempts. He was 4 for 4 on 40-49-yard field goals and 2 for 3 on 50-59-yard field goals.

Prater is week to week with a quad injury, so it appears Badgley will be doing the kicking for the Bills. He could be a kicking upgrade to your fantasy roster, just in time for the playoffs.

K Matt Prater (quad) will also be out this week.

The Bills will need to work out kickers this week heading into Week 16's game. For those who may be in need of a kicker, you can keep an eye out for who they sign as they should have some fantasy value.

Bills DE Joey Bosa and LB Terrel Bernard are OUT vs. Bengals. WR Josh Palmer DOUBTFUL.

TE Dalton Kincaid (knee/hammy) & RT Spencer Brown (shoulder) QUESTIONABLE. HC Sean McDermott says he needs to see both guys be “functional” to play.

LT Dion Dawkins (concussion) good to go

Related Players: Dawson Knox, Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Gabe Davis, Brandin Cooks

Even if Kincaid misses, we've seen a sharp decline in usage for Knox as a pass-catcher, so he's off the Week 14 streaming radar.

Whether or not Palmer plays, the only wide receiver we can trust is Shakir, who should be valued in the WR3 range.

Related Players: Dawson Knox, Khalil Shakir, Gabe Davis, Tyrell Shavers

Not trending well for Kincaid to return this weekend, but Knox can still be left on waiver wires.

Shakir remains the only reliable option in the passing attack, and should be considered on the WR2/3 fringe in a good matchup against the Steelers' secondary.

It didn’t take veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks long to find his new team.

The Bills announced today that they have signed Cooks, a day after he cleared waivers.

Cooks negotiated with the Saints to gain his release, and the Bills were one of three teams people around the league identified as his potential destination (the Rams and Broncos were the other two), the story went on to say. The Bills are hoping the signing of Cook can give QB Josh Allen some needed help at the WR position as we head down the stretch of the regular season. While roster spots are tough to come by, Cooks could have some fantasy value eventually, and could be worth a stash, especially in deeper leagues.

Bills WR Keon Coleman is, once again, officially inactive for tonight's game against the Texans.

Coleman, who is, for all intents and purposes an NFL player, will hang out on the sideline for the second week in a row. This sets up well for a big Shakir game, but so did last week, and he turned three targets into -3 yards. It's fine to go back to the well here if you consider him in the fringe WR3/4 range, but it would be hard to trust anyone behind him. Knox is somewhere in the TE20 range with Dalton Kincaid out.
