The team has announced that wide receivers Cole Beasley and Gabriel Davis, offensive lineman Jon Feliciano and defensive end A.J. Epenesa have all been activated from the league's COVID-19 protocols.

All four players were unavailable for the Bills in Sunday's 33-21 win over the New England Patriots.

Feliciano has missed the past two games for Buffalo after being placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list just before kickoff in Week 15 against the Carolina Panthers. He will be a welcomed addition back to the offensive line, especially after Ike Boettger was lost for the season this past week due to an Achilles injury.

Meanwhile, the addition of Beasley and Davis back to the wide receivers room will help give quarterback Josh Allen a full plethora of weapons once again heading into the Bills' Week 17 matchup with the Atlanta Falcons.

However, after Isaiah McKenzie’s impressive performance against the Patriots, where he caught 11 passes for 125 yards and a touchdown filling in for Beasley, it will be interesting to see how offensive coordinator Brian Daboll will find ways to distribute the ball going forward.

During his Wednesday Zoom call with the Buffalo media, Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that all four players will practice in some capacity when the team takes the field for the day's session. The team will conduct a walkthrough practice before likely ramping things up on Thursday.

The only players on the roster remaining on the Reserve/COVID-19 list for the Bills are cornerback Cam Lewis and guard Cody Ford.
