"The Bills' run game in Week 8 was dominant vs. the Panthers. James Cook had 19 carries for 216 yards and two rushing touchdowns. In the end, Buffalo beat the Panthers 40-9 to get back in the win column. During that game, DT Ed Oliver suffered an injury late in the second quarter. Oliver did not return for the Bills, and NFL insiders reported that he is out indefinitely with a torn bicep."
"Through their first seven games in 2025, the Buffalo Bills are 5-2. The team was on the road in Week 8 to face the Carolina Panthers. Buffalo dominated from start to finish and beat the Panthers 40-9. During that win, Bills' DT Ed Oliver suffered a torn bicep. ESPN's Adam Shefter reported that Oliver is set to have an MRI on Monday. However, the 27-year-old is expected to miss an extended period of time."
"Just a brutal blow for the Bills, who are already razor-thin up front. T.J. Sanders and DeWayne Carter are both currently on the injured reserve for Buffalo. Additionally, DaQuan Jones is dealing with a calf injury. Larry Ogunjobi, Deone Walker, and Jordan Phillips are the only active defensive tackles on the 53-man roster. The Bills might have to call a player up from the practice squad."
Buffalo entered Week 8 following a bye after a 4-0 start and two straight losses, holding a 5-2 record through seven games. The Bills dominated at Carolina, winning 40-9 as James Cook rushed 19 times for 216 yards and two touchdowns. Defensive tackle Ed Oliver suffered a torn bicep late in the second quarter, did not return, and is expected to miss an extended period pending MRI confirmation. Interior defensive line depth is strained with T.J. Sanders and DeWayne Carter on injured reserve, DaQuan Jones dealing with a calf issue, and only three active DTs available. A practice-squad promotion is likely.
