With six games remaining in their season, the Buffalo Bills are still in the hunt to make the playoffs for the first time since 1999. They should get a big boost for the rest of the year as Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins is expected to return to the field this Sunday after missing the team’s last eight games with a foot injury.

Watkins has just six catches for 63 yards on 11 targets this season.
Fantasy Impact: For any fantasy owners looking to start the talented receiver this weekend when Buffalo takes on the Jacksonville Jaguars, he or she may want to hold onto that thought for just a little bit longer.
Yes, Watkins is expected to play on Sunday. But the Bills are not expected to give him back his normal role just yet.
So hold off on starting Watkins this week, but keep an eye on how he is doing for the next few weeks. He definitely has the talent to still make a big impact on the upcoming fantasy playoff season.
