Team news: Buffalo Bills

TE Dawson Knox was on the field but in a red non-contact jersey. Katherine followed up with, "Dawson Knox left Saturday's game for a bit after landing hard on a catch the first play of Bills' opening drive. He came back and played 75% of the snaps on offense. After the game, he said 'just landed on it -- a little hip pointer, nothing major.'"

Unless we get news of Knox missing Friday's practice it would seem we have nothing to worry about in fantasy land. He has gone 13-177-3 over the last three games and is a TE1 in what could be an explosive offensive game against the Bengals on Monday Night Football.

Bills elevated WR Cole Beasley to their active roster for Saturday’s game vs. the Bears.

This shouldn't do anything to Stefon Diggs' production at all, but the call-up could affect Gabe Davis and Isaiah McKenzie's floors, which were already wavering. Beasley has seen 24 snaps in the 2022 season, converting his lone Week 15 target into nine yards.

The Dolphins and Bills are set to face off for the second time this season Saturday night, when several outlets are projecting heavy snow to fall on Highmark Stadium in Orchard Park, New York. It would mark Tua Tagovailoa's first time playing in the snow in his NFL career, but he said apart from spending time in the cold tub last week while the team practiced in Los Angeles, he hasn't put much thought into Saturday's playing conditions.

While a game in heavy snow will be fun to watch, those with fantasy stock in the game and owning Bills and Dolphins players may want to think about their lineups. It's always tough to remove players like Tua and Allen from your lineups in the playoffs, but ugly weather can sometimes mean a hit to the passing game, even though slippery conditions does favor the offense. It will be something to keep an eye on heading into the weekend. The game is scheduled to be played Saturday night.

A reunion in Buffalo: WR Cole Beasley is coming out of retirement and expected to sign with the Bills’ practice squad, sources say.

After a brief stint with the Buccaneers earlier this season, Beasley returns to Orchard Park to provide Josh Allen with another trusted target, the tweet said. It's hard to imagine Beasley having a huge role in the offense, let a lone a lot of fantasy production, and he's most likely an insurance policy for injuries at this point.

Quarterback Josh Allen will be listed as limited.

As we reported Tuesday, Allen didn't make the injury worse playing in Week 10 and it's safe to assume he'll be back on the field for Week 11. HC Sean McDermott said the team will continue the regimen from last week and will evaluate him each day and determine his practice load.

Head coach Sean McDermott said on Monday that there was no further issue with Josh Allen's elbow.

McDermott said Allen’s elbow is in a “good spot” coming out of the game and that the team will determine his practice schedule for the week. Offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey added that the game plan on Sunday was not limited by Allen’s injury, the story said. It also added there weren't many throws that were off the table in terms of play calling. Allen should be good for Week 11's game. The Bills host the Browns.

The Bills chose not to elevate QB Matt Barkley from the practice squad, a sign that Josh Allen could start Sunday against the Vikings.

Allen did not practice this week with an elbow sprain but did some throwing on Friday and is able to grip the football. The Bills seem to feel comfortable enough with how Allen looks and them not elevating Barkley shows the Bills look like they’ll roll with Allen, considering the only other quarterback on their active roster is Case Keenum.

Josh Allen was not on the field during the brief portion of practice open to the media.

Case Keenum is almost assuredly starting in Week 10, with Allen still being held out of Friday's practice. Keenum would have a great arsenal of weapons to work with, but without Allen's incredible rushing floor, he won't be a locked-in QB1 option.

Word is Josh Allen has expressed confidence to teammates he’ll be able to play Sunday vs. the Vikings but that’s what I’d expect him to say. We’ll see as Sunday draws closer for the Bills’ franchise QB.

Mike Giardi reported Allen didn't practice on Wednesday and also tweeted the team says they have confidence in Keenum if he'd be needed. It's not a shock Allen isn't practicing today but you'll want to monitor him the rest of the week. Giardi tweeted HC Sean McDermott said the team will use common sense with Allen.
