The Bills called up two players from their practice squad on Friday, one day ahead of their AFC Divisional round matchup with the Ravens. The team announced that the pair is running back Antonio Williams and cornerback Dane Jackson.
In turn, that means running back Devonta Freeman and wide receiver Kenny Stills, two players who were signed by Buffalo, were not called up. They will continue to wait to make their Bills debuts.
On that same idea, bringing Williams and Jackson up from the practice squad is not a guarantee either will even play for the team on game day. In recent weeks the team has called players up but left hem inactive on game day.
Williams and Jackson, both rookies, have made their debuts for the Bills already this season and have impressed in brief spurts.
On the running back, Bills head coach Sean McDermott did say either this week that TJ Yeldon, not Williams, would be the No. 2 behind Devin Singletary in Buffalo’s backfield in lieu of Zack Moss’s ankle injury. At cornerback, the Bills have had no recent injuries, but Jackson has found his way on the field for the Buffalo five times already this season.
