Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox is slated to miss three weeks due to the hand injury he suffered in Week 6 against the Tennessee Titans.
That update comes to us via NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo, who reported on the injury during Buffalo’s bye over the weekend.
During the second half of the Bills’ loss to the Titans, Knox injured his hand but still completed a pass on a trick play. Despite that effort, Knox left the game and did not return.
Specifically in the latest news, Knox is said to likely be back against the New York Jets.
Here’s the full report:

In the meantime, the Bills (4-2) will return from their bye week and face the Miami Dolphins at home on Sunday in Week 7.
After that, they’ll travel to face the Jacksonville Jaguars before the Jets meeting.
All in all, the Bills appear to have a little luck on their side.
The Dolphins and Jaguars are two teams with one win so far this season and missing a key piece of the offense in games such as those make Knox’s injury easier to swallow.
