Patriots' injury forces shaky defenders into critical roles in Bills matchup

The Patriots are going into Week 5 to face off against their toughest opponent of the season so far on Sunday Night Football: the reigning AFC East Champions, the Bills. It is expected to be a good game, one that will allow New England to gauge where they stand as a team, and that will unfortunately come with one starting already being ruled out.

On Saturday afternoon, news broke that starting pass rusher K'Lavon Chaisson would not be on the field on Sunday night, as he is still dealing with a knee injury that kept him away from practice in the days leading up to the game.
