Buffalo Bills Week 3 inactives vs. Los Angeles Chargers

On September 13, 2026, the Buffalo Bills listed one player as inactive and four others as questionable for their upcoming matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers, on the other hand, ruled out six players ahead of the game. The Bills aim for a 3-0 start under first-year head coach Joe Brady, while the Chargers hope to avoid an 0-3 start under second-year head coach Jim Harbaugh.

This game is significant for both teams, with the Chargers needing a win to avoid a losing start and the Bills hoping to maintain their form to go deep into the playoffs. The inactive players for both teams have been announced.

For the Buffalo Bills, Skyler Bell is inactive. Both DJ Moore and Keon Coleman are active despite being injured, with Moore dealing with a shoulder issue and Coleman with an ankle issue. Greg Dortch, signed to the active roster from the practice squad, will once again fill a vital role on special teams returning kickoffs and punts.

Rookie Ar'Maj Reed-Adams is a healthy scratch this week due to an elbow issue he suffered in practice. Rookie fourth-round pick Jude Bowry is also a healthy scratch, as the Bills will stick with their usual eight on the offensive line. Defensive lineman T.J. Sanders missed the first two games due to a knee injury and is out again this week, but defensive end Ed Oliver will return after recovering from an appendectomy.

Cornerback Mike Danna is a healthy scratch once again, as it appears he'll only dress for a game if there's an injury to another edge rusher. Safety Jalen Kilgore, who was expected to make his NFL debut after second-year man Jordan Hancock went on injured reserve due to a hamstring issue, is also a healthy scratch. He has been replaced by veteran Te’Cory Couch, who will play in the slot over Kilgore's athleticism as a big nickel/safety.
