Bills Provide Injury Update on Kicker Matt Prater
The Buffalo Bills have provided an injury update regarding kicker Matt Prater, confirming that he will not return for the remainder of Sunday’s matchup against the New York Jets. Prater suffered a right quad injury, leading to his exit during the third quarter.
This recent setback is particularly concerning as Prater has struggled with the same injury, missing the previous two games. However, he was active for Week 18 and played a role in the first half, handling kickoffs and extra points.
Replacement Kicker
In Prater’s absence, punter Mitch Wishnowsky will step in to manage kickoffs for the team. This change may impact the Bills’ special teams strategy for the remainder of the game.
Game Highlights
During the afternoon, the Bills demonstrated a bold play strategy. Following quarterback Mitch Trubisky’s touchdown pass to wide receiver Gabe Davis, the team opted for a two-point conversion. Trubisky successfully connected with Keon Coleman, ensuring the extra points were secured.
