Two Key Buffalo Bills Players Remained Out Of Practice Thursday
The Buffalo Bills have a golden opportunity to establish themselves as the team to beat in the AFC this weekend as they take on the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs. But they could be without some key members of the team.
The Bills released their practice report for Thursday and there were two noteworthy players who missed practice for the second day in a row: Tight end Dalton Kincaid and right tackle Spencer Brown.
Kincaid is one of the Bills' leading receivers on the season with 34 receptions for 356 yards and two touchdowns in 10 games. He's missed only one game since his rookie season in 2023.
Brown, who is in his fourth season with the Bills, has missed only seven games in his NFL career and has started 51 of 54 career games.

At 8-2 on the season, the Bills already boast a five-game lead over the Miami Dolphins, New York Jets and New England Patriots in the AFC East title race. A win over the Chiefs would not only improve on that lead with just six more games to play, but make them one of the betting favorites to win the entire conference.
The Bills are one of the few NFL teams have consistently given the Chiefs a run for their money in both the regular season and the playoffs. But while they're 3-1 against the Chiefs in the regular season with quarterback Josh Allen under center, Allen is 0-3 against Kansas City in the playoffs.
And with the Chiefs seemingly playing this entire season with a lucky rabbit's foot in their pocket, the Bills are likely going to need more than just great play from their best players in order to win.
Can Buffalo overcome these injuries and beat the Chiefs this weekend?
