Joshua Palmer: Breaking News

Moves to IR, season over

The Bills placed Palmer (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday. Palmer was held out of all drills Wednesday through Friday due to an ankle injury before Buffalo ruled him out for Sunday's wild-card game at Jacksonville. Considering he's required to miss at least four contests while on IR, his 2025 campaign is over. Palmer will finish it with a 22-303-0 line on 37 targets in 12 regular-season appearances.

Won't play Sunday

Palmer (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's AFC wild-card game against the Jaguars. Palmer was held out of practice all week due to an ankle injury, which is severe enough for the veteran wideout to be sidelined for the Bills' playoff opener. With Palmer sidelined, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports that Keon Coleman -- who was a healthy inactive in four of the Bills' final eight games of the regular season -- is expected to be active against Jacksonville. Brandin Cooks and Tyrell Shavers are also in line for more snaps on offense in Palmer's absence.

Questionable for Sunday

Palmer (ankle) won't practice Friday and will be listed as questionable for Sunday's playoff opener against the Jaguars, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Palmer thus will finish the week with three consecutive 'DNPs,' which clouds the wideout's status for Sunday's 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. In 12 contests during the regular season, Palmer put up a 22-303-0 line on 37 targets, a rate of production that limited his fantasy lineup viability to deeper formats.
