Bills WR DJ Moore suffered a shoulder injury Thursday night that doctors do not consider serious and will leave him day

What happened: DJ Moore suffered a shoulder injury Thursday night, but doctors do not consider it serious and he is day to day. He has a chance to play next week against the Chargers, but it is not a lock.

Why it matters: Buffalo just finished with 41 points in a final, so this is not the spot to act desperate. If the offense can reach 41 while Moore's status is day to day, the stronger move is making sure he is right instead of pushing him back early.
