Player Notes

Buffalo Bills Foster, Robert · Nov 27, 2018

WR Robert Foster caught two passes for 94 yards including a 75-yard reception for a TD in the first quarter, the first score of his NFL career.

Buffalo Bills Allen, Josh · Nov 27, 2018

QB Josh Allen returned from a four-game injury hiatus and completed 8 of 19 passes for 160 yards including a 75-yard TD against the Jaguars, and he also rushed 13 times for 99 yards in what was the best game of his young career.

Atlanta Falcons Trufant, Desmond · Nov 27, 2018

DB Desmond Trufant played through a bothersome thigh last week against the Saints and did not produce one of his more memorable games. Quinn said, "I'm more than pleased with the way he's responded over the last few weeks."

Atlanta Falcons Freeman, Devonta · Nov 27, 2018

RB Devonta Freeman could return by the end of the season. He is back in Atlanta and Quinn said he would have a better assessment on the Pro Bowl tailback later in the week. It may be unlikely that the team would push him to return now that the playoffs hopes are all but finished.

Atlanta Falcons Ryan, Matt · Nov 27, 2018

QB Matt Ryan still threw for 377 yards against the Saints, but was intercepted once and lost a fumble. Ryan was sacked six times, matching the season high against the Steelers. He was also the team's rushing leader for the first time in his career.

Cincinnati Bengals Savage, Tom · Nov 27, 2018

QB Tom Savage was claimed off waivers by the Bengals from the 49ers, the Bengals announced Monday. The 49ers had waived Savage over the weekend, and presumably were going to re-sign him this week. But the Bengals scooped him up before the 49ers could act.

Cincinnati Bengals Dalton, Andy · Nov 27, 2018

QB Andy Dalton was placed on injured reserve with a thumb injury, the Bengals announced Monday. The team did not disclose the specifics of Dalton's injury, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reported that Dalton suffered torn ligaments in the thumb on his throwing hand. Dalton is done for the season, and it is unclear at this point whether Dalton will require surgery.

Atlanta Falcons Jones, Deion · Nov 27, 2018

LB Deion Jones: The club decided that Jones was not ready for game action against the Saints. He has been on the roster, but remained inactive, for the last two games. He has been working out with the team and Quinn said he was "hopeful" of Jones' return this week.

Baltimore Ravens Flacco, Joe · Nov 27, 2018

QB Joe Flacco (hip) missed his second straight game Week 12 against the Raiders. Coach John Harbaugh is uncertain whether the veteran quarterback will be able to return to practice this week. "It's too premature because he has to be cleared to practice. He has not been cleared to practice yet," Harbaugh said. Lamar Jackson got his second career start in Flacco's place and led the team to a 31-17 victory.

Baltimore Ravens Edwards, Gus · Nov 27, 2018

RB Gus Edwards made his first start in place of the injured Alex Collins (foot) and finished with 118 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries. The undrafted rookie became the first Ravens player to have consecutive 100-yard games since Justin Forsett in 2015.
