Texans vs Bills Injury Report: C.J. Stroud and Dalton Kincaid Out, Joey Bosa Unspecified

Eric Divakaran

The Houston Texans will host the Buffalo Bills for this exciting Week 12 clash. This Texans vs Bills game will be a battle of AFC South vs AFC East, with both teams trying to prove who’s better amongst the two. The Texans come into this matchup after a narrow win over the Titans last week, they are .500 for the season and their playoff chances is still unclear, as we approach the NFL postseason. Now with week 12 here, they are without their QB1 C.J. Stroud once again in a critical game against one of the best teams in the NFL.

Meanwhile, the Buffalo Bills come into this matchup with a 7-3 record, beating the Buccaneers last week in a high scoring game. While the Bills are playoff bound and have been stellar at times, their primary concern remains with their defense as the opposition have tended to explode at times with their rushing attack. The Bills have the best chance to go to the Super Bowl this season, as their arch-nemisis, the Chiefs are struggling this season. But can they take advantage of the situation or will they fail again? We’ll see.

I give love to players when it’s due, but can be critical about their performances at the same time. Enough about me, now let my articles do all the talking.
