Bills Sign Frank Gore Jr. for Playoff Run
11 Jan
Summary
- Bills face Jaguars in first-round playoff game.
- Frank Gore Jr. signed by Buffalo, following his father's legacy.
- Injury to WR Palmer led to roster adjustments for Buffalo.
The Buffalo Bills are preparing for their initial NFL playoff game on the road against the Jacksonville Jaguars this Sunday. Despite finishing their regular season with a 12-5 record, the Bills entered the postseason as a wild card team, securing the No. 6 seed. Their opponent, the Jaguars, earned the No. 3 seed by winning the AFC South with a 13-4 record.
Significant roster adjustments were made shortly before kickoff due to an injury to wide receiver Joshua Palmer. Buffalo subsequently placed Palmer on the injured reserve list. In response, the team signed linebacker Baylon Spector from the practice squad and elevated defensive end Andre Jones Jr. and running back Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr., whose father is an NFL legend, joins the same franchise where his father had an extensive career. While his exact role remains uncertain given James Cook's lead in carries, the Bills might utilize Gore Jr. sparingly, especially with Ty Johnson listed as questionable.
