Bills-Panthers Preview: Hairston Returns to Practice

The Bills cautiously reintegrate first-round pick Maxwell Hairston after a loss and injuries, facing a Panthers defense ranked 31st against the run, coach Sean McDermott said.

  • The Buffalo Bills , coming off a bye, visit Carolina at Bank of America Stadium on Sunday, after a loss to the Falcons.
  • After the bye, Buffalo leans on an 8-0 postseason-bye record under Sean McDermott, Bills head coach, who alongside Brandon Beane, Bills general manager, joined Buffalo in 2017 after long Panthers stints.
  • Controlling the clock is central: the Panthers plan to run the ball and keep Allen off the field, having rushed for 580 yards in the past three games with Rico Dowdle and Chuba Hubbard.
  • Buffalo's run defense ranks 31st, allowing 156.3 yards per game, while DaQuan Jones and Joshua Palmer are out and Taylor Rapp's status is uncertain; Josh Allen's recent turnovers raise stakes.
  • The Panthers are 3-0 at home, and veteran Andy Dalton could start as Bryce Young's ankle status remains uncertain, adding to Sunday’s stakes.
