Buffalo Bills injury report injuries Week 5 Pittsburgh Steelers Jordan Poyer Dawson Knox Jamison Crowder IR injured reserve NFL football fantasy

The Buffalo Bills’ injury-plagued season continues into Week 5 with the team gearing up for an AFC matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Bills received more bad news on Friday as head coach Sean McDermott announced that TE Dawson Knox, S Jordan Poyer, CB Christian Benford, WR Jake Kumerow, and WR Jamison Crowder will all miss Sunday’s contest.

To add insult to injury, Crowder will be heading to injured reserve.

The Bills shouldn’t need a full arsenal of weapons to get past the Steelers with rookie QB Kenny Pickett set to make his first career start. That being said, it’s frustrating that injuries continue to throw a wrench in game plans.

When healthy, the Bills’ roster stacks up with anyone in the league. The year is still young, but these injury issues are already getting old.
