The Buffalo Bills tried to get through Week 18 without any injuries, resting most of their starters in their blowout win over the New York Jets, but they were put in a bind at cornerback and paid the price.
Head coach Sean McDermott said on Monday that rookie first-round pick Maxwell Hairston is unlikely to play against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the Wild Card round due to an ankle injury he suffered in the second half of the season finale.
Two days later, the Bills made roster moves that signal some confirmation of Hairston’s unavailability.
