The same game in which Alford injured his ankle, Te'Cory Couch, who was elevated from the practice squad for that game to be his backup, suffered a hamstring injury.
Couch was also back at practice for a second straight day this week.
DB Te’Cory Couch isn’t listed on the injury report because he’s on the practice squad, but he did injure his hamstring a couple weeks ago which left the team thin at nickel CB. He is practicing again today: https://t.co/J1LJ2o4nEZ

The Bills have been practicing on the campus of UC-Irvine. They elected to stay out west for the back-to-back games at Los Angles and Las Vegas.
Wide receiver DJ Moore and defensive lineman Ed Oliver have not practiced, but both were off to the side of the practice field with athletic trainers. Both players missed Monday night's game.
