Buffalo Bills quarterback Tyrod Taylor is listed as probable on the team's injury report.
Tyrod Taylor injury update: Bills QB ‘ready to roll’ for fantasy owners
The Bills won’t have to resort to a backup option under center in an important Week 12 showdown with the Chiefs. We break down the fantasy implications.
Head coach Rex Ryan declared that his starting quarterback was "ready to roll" on Friday, according to Sal Capaccio of WGR 550. Taylor injured his shoulder during Monday night's loss to the New England Patriots, but finished the game despite being in visible discomfort. EJ Manuel will once again be relegated to backup duties while Taylor retains his post under center.
Fantasy impact: Taylor's playmaking ability will always present upside, but his floor is just too low against a Chiefs defense that has been white-hot in recent weeks. For fantasy owners who prefer to stream options at the quarterback position, Taylor presents too much downside amid a week where there are plenty of options to choose from.
Taylor can be considered a middling QB2 for Week 12 against a defense that is rapidly climbing the ranks and is allowing the fourth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks.
