The Buffalo Bills are gearing up for one of the most crucial games of their season, hosting the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11 at Highmark Stadium. As the AFC's second-ranked team (8-2), the Bills are looking to close the gap on the 9-0 Chiefs, who are riding high as two-time defending Super Bowl champions. However, Buffalo's plans hit a roadblock with the loss of key players, including tight end Dalton Kincaid.
Head coach Sean McDermott confirmed during his weekly WGR550 appearance that Kincaid will miss the game due to a knee injury. The rookie tight end has been instrumental in the Bills' offense, racking up 356 receiving yards and two touchdowns this season. His absence marks a significant blow to Buffalo's offensive strategy, with no clear timeline for his return as the team adopts a "week-to-week" approach to his recovery.
In Kincaid's stead, tight end Dawson Knox will take on a larger role. Knox, with 142 yards and one touchdown this season, will need to step up to fill the void in Buffalo's ing attack. The Bills are also without rookie receiver Keon Coleman (wrist) and linebacker Matt Milano (bicep), further depleting their depth in critical positions.
Allen vs. Mahomes: the rivalry continues
This game sets the stage for yet another showdown between Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes, two of the NFL's most electrifying quarterbacks. While Allen holds a 3-1 advantage in regular-season matchups, Mahomes has been dominant in the postseason, leading Kansas City to three playoff wins over Buffalo.
With Kincaid sidelined, Allen will rely on receiver Khalil Shakir and running back James Cook to maintain offensive balance. Shakir's versatility and Cook's ability to establish a ground game will be crucial against a Chiefs defense that has been formidable this season.
A primetime test
The stakes couldn't be higher as the Bills face their toughest challenge yet. The Chiefs' unbeaten streak and top-ranking in the AFC set a daunting stage, and Buffalo's injury setbacks only amplify the difficulty.
Despite the challenges, the Bills are determined to prove they belong at the top of the AFC hierarchy. With playoff implications on the line, this high-stakes showdown promises to be an unmissable battle under the primetime lights.
