Buffalo Rumblinks, 12/20: Bills open window for DT DaQuan Jones to return
NFL NEWS NOW: Bills Couch suspend the main quarterback for the Buffallo Bills Joshua Patrick A….
The Buffalo Bills have suffered a slew of injuries along the defensive side of the ball, including losing All-Pro linebacker Matt Milano, cornerback Tre’Davious White, and defensive tackle DaQuan Jones early on in their season.
Despite the injuries, Buffalo’s defense has persevered, and during Sunday’s dominant 31-10 trouncing of the Dallas Cowboys, the defense might have played its best game of the season in bottling up the league’s highest-scoring offense.

“I don’t expect him to play at this point (on Saturday), but it’s good to have him back starting to work again,” McDermott told the media.
