S Geno Stone and WR Trent Sherfield Sr. elevated, WR Joshua Palmer placed on Injured Reserve | Week 9
Two players were elevated and one was placed on IR ahead of Monday night's game.
Geno Stone and Trent Sherfield Sr. were elevated by the Buffalo Bills ahead of Monday night’s Week 9 game against the Minnesota Vikings. This marks Stone’s second elevation of the season, following his Week 8 contribution in the win over the Ravens.
Stone tied for the team’s second-most tackles with five in that Ravens game and appeared in 37% of defensive snaps. Sherfield Sr. also receives a second elevation this year, after Week 5’s victory against the Rams, where he logged 11% of offensive snaps and 59% of special-teams snaps.
Wide receiver Joshua Palmer has been placed on Injured Reserve after missing the entire week of practice with a hamstring injury. He is expected to miss at least four games.
The Bills’ adjustments include the two elevations of Stone and Sherfield Sr. and Palmer’s move to IR, ahead of their Week 9 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. Stone’s previous Week 8 performance is noted as part of his season elevation pattern, while Sherfield Sr.’s Week 5 usage is highlighted to illustrate his prior involvement.
