Bills Kicker's Injury: Postseason Status Uncertain

Bills head coach Sean McDermott indicated that kicker's quadriceps injury is being managed on a day-to-day basis as the team gears up for their upcoming wild-card game. The nagging injury prevented the kicker from participating in Weeks 16 and 17 and caused him to exit the recent game against the Jets. While the severity of the aggravation is not deemed significant, his participation in the postseason opener is questionable.

To ensure readiness, the Bills are scheduling workouts with alternative kickers. This proactive measure is in place should the 41-year-old kicker not be cleared to play in Jacksonville. This preparation is crucial given the importance of the playoff matchup and the kicker's recent physical struggles.

Throughout the regular season, the kicker demonstrated effectiveness, converting 46 of 49 extra-point attempts and 18 of 20 field-goal attempts, with a longest conversion of 52 yards. His performance statistics underscore his value to the team, making his potential absence a notable concern for the postseason.
