T.J. YELDON NEWS

Back at practice Yeldon (back) was a full participant during Wednesday's practice.

Impact Yeldon failed to practice all last week with the back issue before being ruled out of Week 9, so it appears he's on track to return to the lineup, that is, if the Bills decide to suit up an extra running back. The Alabama product has seen a limited role this season, rushing for just 70 yards on 10 carries and adding a touchdown catch for 22 yards. Yeldon has a better chance of getting the call Sunday if fellow running back Taiwan Jones (hamstring) has to miss a second straight game.

Won't play in Week 9 Yeldon (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.

Impact Yeldon was unable to practice all week and will continue to sit out as a result. Devin Singletary and Zack Moss will continue to split Buffalo's backfield reps while the team's offense will likely go pass-heavy against Seattle's league-worst secondary.

DNP to start practice week Yeldon missed Wednesday's practice due to a back injury.

Impact Yeldon was scratched for Sunday's win against the Patriots due to the issue, though he's often a healthy inactive anyway. The veteran has carried the ball just 10 times in 2020, while the only pass he's caught did go for a touchdown.

Scratched Week 7 Yeldon is inactive for Sunday's game at the Jets.

Impact Yeldon had a big Week 5 in a blowout loss to the Titans with 74 scrimmage yards and a receiving touchdown, but the team is committed to backup Zack Moss as the now healthy backup to Devin Singletary, while the third active spot always goes to special teams stud Taiwan Jones.

Finds end zone Tuesday Yeldon rushed seven times for 52 yards and caught one of three targets for a 22-yard touchdown in Tuesday's 42-16 loss to the Titans.

Impact With Devin Singletary (11 carries for 25 yards) struggling and Zack Moss (toe) sitting out, Yeldon was entrusted with picking up a few 3rd-and-shorts and managed to deliver. The veteran running back then got free in the back of the end zone for a 22-yard touchdown to bring Buffalo within 12 with 10 minutes left in the fourth quarter and broke loose for a 34-yard run in garbage time to pad his stat line. Yeldon's role will likely shrink when Moss comes back, but he could see some extra playing time at Singletary's expense Monday against the Chiefs if Moss's injury keeps the rookie out for a fourth consecutive game.

Sees first action of season Yeldon carried three times for 18 yards and was not targeted in the passing game during Sunday's win over the Rams.

Impact Yeldon, a healthy scratch the first two weeks, was asked to suit up as the No. 2 running back with Zack Moss out with a toe injury. The 6.0 yards per carry is nice, but the 2015 second-rounder simply hasn't seen enough volume to be a factor for years. Still, the Bills have an effective running game, and Yeldon was one injury away from having a meaningful role in the attack Sunday. One thing he does do well is catch the ball out of the backfield, but the team uses wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie more in that short-area role.

Not dressing for Week 2 Yeldon will be inactive for Sunday's game in Miami, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Yeldon was inactive last week as well, a situation that could continue until/unless Devin Singletary or Zack Moss suffers an injury. Taiwan Jones is a far better special teams player than Yeldon and could be used as an emergency RB if needed.

Survives roster cuts Yeldon survived the Bills' roster cutdown Saturday and looks to begin the season as the team's No. 3 running back.

Impact Taiwan Jones also made the team, but he's more of a special-teams ace and it will be Yeldon who should see the field as a pass-catching threat out of the backfield. Note that the Bills seem to tweak the bottom of their roster more than the average team, so Yeldon is no sure thing to last the entire season. The Bills are already planning out a visit with veteran cut Lamar Miller.
