Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott made it clear already that cornerback Taron Johnson would not play this week with a forearm injury. More concerning is that we still don't know the severity and have no timeline for his return.

Other than Johnson, there are two other injuries that were of concern, and the last injury report of the week before Thursday Night Football cleared up the previous speculations.

@BuffaloBillsPR on X.

It was expected that Dawuane Smoot would not be available to play this week with the toe injury that held him out of Week 1. Rookie Javon Solomon, who was also inactive Week 1, looks to at least have a chance to play tomorrow night, being listed as "Doubtful." We'll see on the final actives/inactives, but I wouldn't expect him to suit up.

Everyone else is good to go. Josh Allen is off the injury report and will be good to go after suffering a hand injury while hurdling Budda Baker for a touchdown on Sunday, which is good news. Allen was never in doubt of missing this game. 

For the Miami Dolphins, head coach Mike McDaniel confirmed that running back Raheem Mostert will be out, and running back De'Von Achane will be a game time decision. Their final injury report has yet to be posted.
