"We're in the mode of taking it one day at a time," McDermott said Monday when asked if he plans to sit starters down the stretch. McDermott said he's know more later in the week.
Starting safeties Taylor Rapp (neck/shoulder) and Damar Hamlin (ribs) and starting cornerback Rasul Douglas (knee) have missed two games in a row. Buffalo played minus starting linebacker Matt Milano (groin) in Week 16. All four players entered the 24-21 victory over the New England Patriots as questionable.
"A lot of these guys are getting better that were out yesterday," McDermott said Monday. "We'll see how they do throughout the week."
Three other Buffalo defensive players left against New England - linebackers Baylon Spector and Terrel Bernard and cornerback Taron Johnson - but Spector was the only one who didn't return. The Bills re-signed linebacker Nicholas Morrow to their active roster on Monday.
