Buffalo Bills Get an Update on Gabe Davis’ Injury

The Buffalo Bills won the AFC East and it's been quite the past 15 hours for Bills Mafia. The celebration went on in to Monday morning, but now the work has begun on preparing for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

The Bills host the Steelers at Highmark Stadium this Sunday afternoon. It's the 2-7 matchup in the AFC wild card round and will likely be impacted by the weather, with snow and wind potentially being a storyline on Sunday.

However, the injury front is also of concern.

Gabe Davis, Tyrel Dodson, Ty Johnson and Rasul Douglas all left last night's game against the Miami Dolphins. None returned.

Today, we got an update on Gabe Davis' injury, which was a knee injury.

Ian Rapoport of The NFL Network reports that Davis suffered a PCL sprain, which is the best possible news all things considered. It's the ligament at the back of the knee joint. It's not considered long-term.

However, Davis' status for Sunday is still up in the air.

The Steelers will likely be missing star edge rusher T.J. Watt, who suffered a grade 2 MCL sprain against the Baltimore Ravens in week 18.

Watt is the most important Steelers player. His absence will help the Bills but Davis plays most snaps on offense for Buffalo and is important in deep routes and blocking.

If he doesn't play, the Bills will likely elevate Andy Isabella to the 53-man roster. Dalton Kincaid and Khalil Shakir will have to step up in the passing game on Sunday.

Kickoff is 1 pm this Sunday.
