Starting left tackle Dion Dawkins returned to practice for the Buffalo Bills on Thursday, one day after missing practice for personal reasons.
Wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders, who missed last Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons with a knee injury, did not practice for a second-straight day, nor did defensive end Efe Obada, who is dealing with an ankle injury.
However, offensive lineman Ryan Bates, who has started the last two games at guard but injured his knee late in the team's 29-15 win over Atlanta, was limited for a second-straight day. Defensive tackle Ed Oliver returned in a full capacity, which is encouraging for both players for this week.
Bills head coach Sean McDermott will join the "Extra Point Show" on Friday morning at 10:35 a.m. EST, where he'll give an injury update ahead of the team's final practice of the week.
The Bills host the New York Jets at 4:25 p.m. EST on Sunday in Orchard Park. If they win, they'll clinch the division and host a first round playoff game the following week.
If they lose and the Patriots beat the Dolphins this Sunday in Miami, New England will be the division champions and the Bills will be on the road for the first round. Both teams have already clinched a playoff berth.
For the Jets, wide receiver/returner Braxton Berrios missed his second-straight practice with a quad injury.
