The most noteworthy absence from Bills Stadium on Sunday will undoubtedly be quarterback Tom Brady, but in terms of surprise players missing the action, it’ll be wide receiver Julian Edelman.
According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Bills will not face Edelman in Week 8.
Over the course of his Patriots career, Edelman has carved up the Bills defense. Much of that had to do with Brady in the past, and so far this season Edelman hasn’t exactly clicked the same with current Patriots quarterback Cam Newton.
But potentially another reason for his lack of production is a knee injury.
