What happened: The Buffalo Bills placed wide receiver Joshua Palmer on injured reserve ahead of Monday's matchup against Minnesota. Buffalo also elevated safety Geno Stone and wide receiver Trent Sherfield Sr. to the active roster.
Why it matters: Palmer's move to injured reserve comes after he was ruled out with a hamstring injury, impacting Buffalo's depth at receiver. The elevations provide immediate reinforcements on special teams and defense as Buffalo seeks to maintain the top seed in the conference.
By the numbers: Palmer has caught 4 passes for 117 yards and 2 touchdowns in 2026 through 6 games. Stone has made 6 tackles in 2026 through 1 game, while Sherfield has made 2 tackles in 2026 through 1 game.
