What to know

  • Keon Coleman suffered an ankle injury in the second quarter when his legs tangled with a Lions defender, but returned to play within two plays after sideline treatment.
  • DJ Moore also went down moments earlier with a shoulder injury on a diving catch attempt and was taken to the locker room for X-rays.
  • Coleman's rapid return averted a potentially larger crisis for the Bills wide receiver room, which faced dual injuries in quick succession during the Thursday night game.

“Moore was injured while attempting to make a diving catch from Allen near the Detroit goal line. He came down hard on his left shoulder as a Lions defender landed on him.”
