Ray Davis Sustains Concussion

Ray Davis Sustains Concussion

Bills RB Ray Davis sustained a concussion in Sunday's Wild Card win over the Broncos. That leaves him iffy for next weekend's Divisional Round game vs. the Ravens. We'll track Davis' progress through the protocol throughout the coming week. Davis has been operating as Buffalo's No. 3 RB behind James Cook and Ty Johnson, so his absence wouldn't make much of a fantasy impact.

Jets-Bills Weather Update

Jets-Bills Weather Update

The forecast for today's Jets-Bills game calls for a 45-60% chance of rain throughout the contest with sustained winds of 15 mph and gusts around 30 mph. They're far from ideal conditions but shouldn't kill either passing game. The game still has a 44.5-point over/under, with the Bills implied for 27.25 points. We're not adjusting our projections for this one.
