The New England Patriots defense won't be at full strength against a red-hot Buffalo Bills offense on Monday night.
New England's defense will be without cornerback Stephon Gilmore, defensive lineman Lawrence Guy, and linebackers Shilique Calhoun and Ja'Whaun Bentley in the Week 16 matchup.
Two players -- cornerback Joejuan Williams and wide receiver Donte Moncrief -- are active for Monday after missing last week's loss to the rival Miami Dolphins. Patriots linebacker Cassh Maluia and defensive lineman Nick Thurman were elevated from the practice squad to the 53-man roster Monday and both of them are active.
