Bills WR Stefon Diggs (back) off injury report, set to play vs. Broncos

Buffalo can breathe a sigh of relief after one of its top contributors popped up on the injury report this week.

Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who was limited in practice the past two days due to a back injury, carries no injury designation going into Monday night’s game against the Denver Broncos.

Diggs popped up on the injury report as a limited participant on Friday, bringing some initial worry about his status for Week 10. Diggs practiced at a limited capacity again on Saturday, but told reporters his expectation was to play against Denver. He has yet to miss a game during his tenure in Buffalo.
