Two key Bills dealing with injuries ahead of preseason game vs. Browns
Two key members of the Bills are injured
Buffalo Bills head coach Joe Brady addressed the media before a joint practice against the Cleveland Browns, providing health updates on key players. Wide receiver Khalil Shakir and defensive tackle Ed Oliver are both recovering from injuries, but the severity of their conditions remained undisclosed. Both players did not participate in Tuesday's stadium practice, and it is likely they will miss the club's joint practice in Berea, Ohio, on Tuesday and the second preseason game at Huntington Bank Field on Saturday.
The impact of these injuries on the Bills' receiver group is significant. Currently, Shakir, Keon Coleman, and Skyler Bell are dealing with various injuries, while D.J. Moore suffered a concussion during a reception against the Panthers in the first preseason game. This presents an opportunity for players like Josh Palmer, Mecole Hardman, Stephen Gosnell, Ja'Mori Maclin, and Dante Pettis to step up in upcoming road preseason games and potentially the final exhibition outing next Thursday.
