WR Robert Foster
While Duke Williams and Isaiah McKenzie took advantage of their increased playing time, Robert Foster did not. Foster had four targets and didn’t manage to haul in a single catch in the game. Foster also played in 98 percent of offensive snaps, more than both Williams (89%) and McKenzie (77%). After playing excellent down the stretch in 2018, Foster’s 2019 season has been one of the most intriguing, up-and-down seasons for the Bills.
Head coach Sean McDermott
Sean McDermott’s defense, even the backup unit, held the Jets offense to 13 points. Although, the Jets are pretty bad. Plus he gave linebacker Lorenzo Alexander a nice sendoff which was a really cool gesture.
But let’s face it, the Bills had one goal in this game. Go in and get out healthy. That didn’t happen. Buffalo’s No. 2 cornerback in Levi Wallace was injured making an interception while right tackle Ty Nsekhe, who missed five-straight games, also was banged up. Both left the game with ankle injuries and had on walking boots in the locker room per multiple reports. Those are two potential starters who could miss the playoffs now for the Bills.
CB Levi Wallace
As mentioned Levi Wallace was injured. And that’s basically the start and end of this one. Ty Nsekhe, at times, has been an upgrade from rookie Cody Ford at right tackle, but in terms of capable backups, that depth is better than the Bills at cornerback. Kevin Johnson had a good summer for the Bills and if called upon, will hopefully have a big game against his former team in the Texans on Saturday.
TE Tyler Kroft
Like Robert Foster, Tyler Kroft didn’t take his opportunity. On four targets, Kroft only had one catch for five yards in this one. Tommy Sweeney did play in more snaps than Kroft, but if there was going to be any game Kroft made an overall impact instead of just one touchdown catch against the Steelers, it was this week. That didn’t exactly happen and his future after the season could be in doubt.
