Bills won’t have WR Gabe Davis, S Taylor Rapp vs. Steelers
Both players suffered their injuries in the Bills’ win over the Miami Dolphins last week that secured the AFC East division title and the No. 2 seed in the conference. Rapp, who plays a key role in the team’s dime package, was injured on the play in which he caught the game-ending interception.
Davis has played 83% of the Bills’ offensive snaps this season. He is a significant contributor to the run-game blocking and will be missed in a game against Pittsburgh that is expected to have significant weather. As a receiver, Davis has had multiple games this season without a reception but also three games with 100-plus receiving yards.
Cornerback Rasul Douglas (knee) is not expected to practice Friday, while linebacker Tyrel Dodson (shoulder) will be limited.
