Buffalo Bills S Jordan Poyer (ankle), LG Jon Feliciano (concussion) ruled out vs Houston Texans

ORCHARD PARK, NY – The Buffalo Bills will lose at least two starters for Sunday’s game against the visiting Houston Texans. Goalkeeper Jordan Poyer (ankle) and left guard Jon Feliciano (concussion) were ruled out by coach Sean McDermott on Friday.

The coach declined to say who would start in their place.

“All of these things that we’re still working on here,” McDermott said when asked who would start. “Jon got injured during the week here. So I’m still working on all of that and the same with the safe position with Jordan being out.”

Poyer was injured in the Bills’ 43-21 win over Washington soccer team last week. Safety hasn’t missed a start since the 2017 season. He had an interception in the win over Washington and had 12 tackles this year. Jaquan Johnson came in for him Poyer in Week 3 and is in line to start in his place. Josh Thomas and rookie Damar Hamlin are other options in high school.

Feliciano started the limited week in Wednesday training with an illness. He was demoted not to train Thursday due to a concussion. Fourth-year guard Ike Boettger is likely to start at the left guard post. Boettger started seven games at left guard last year while Feliciano recovered from a torn pectoral muscle.

Nickel cornerback Taron Johnson (groin) and defensive end Efe Obada (ankle) are questionable for the game. Johnson did not train on Thursday or Friday which is not a positive sign for his availability. Siran Neal and Cam Lewis, currently on the team’s practice squad, could add depth if Johnson isn’t able to go.
