D.J. Moore injury: Bills wideout ruled out vs. Lions after injuring shoulder
The Bills said the veteran receiver was questionable to return before X-rays confirmed the shoulder injury and ended his night after one catch.
- On Thursday, September 17, 2026, Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore suffered a shoulder injury during the first half of a 41-31 victory over the Detroit Lions and was ruled out for the remainder of the game.
- Moore sustained the injury while diving for a pass in the end zone, landing hard on his left shoulder; he walked off the field under his own power before heading to the locker room for X-rays.
- Medical evaluations indicate the injury is not serious, with Moore listed as day-to-day; ESPN's Adam Schefter noted, "It's not a lock" that he plays in Week 3.
- With Moore sidelined, the Bills will rely on wide receivers Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir to absorb the bulk of snaps, while tight end Dalton Kincaid remains a primary target in the aerial attack.
- Ten days of rest await the team before their next matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday, September 27, allowing the squad to regain health at Highmark Stadium.
