The Buffalo Bills are four days away from playing against the San Francisco 49ers, and four is the number of noteworthy injuries on Thursday’s practice report. In other words, the Bills have come a long way from the unit of walking wounded that stumbled through the middle months of the season - aided by a late bye week that allowed the team to recover from nagging injuries.
With the Bills playing on Monday night, Thursday’s report is technically the “first” practice report of the week. Also, keep in mind that the report won’t list players like John Brown (ankle), currently on Injured Reserve.
