Bills vs. Dolphins injury report and starting lineup - October 31, 2021 | NFL Week 8

The Miami Dolphins and Buffalo Bills are different teams from the last time they played one another. In Week 2, the Dolphins were coming off their only win of the season, and the Bills were coming off a concerning loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Since that game, the Bills have cemented themselves as one of the top contenders in the AFC. Meanwhile, the Dolphins have plummeted to the bottom of the AFC standings and are 1-6.

The last time they played, the Bills won 35-0. We could be in for another one-sided game in this one.

Buffalo Bills vs. Miami Dolphins injury report

Buffalo Bills

Player	Position	Name	Injury
Dawson Knox	TE	Hand	Out
Spencer Brown	OT	Back	Doubtful
Justin Zimmer	DT	Foot	Questionable

The Bills are in good health entering this game outside of Dawson Knox and Spencer Brown. Knox suffered a hand injury which caused him to miss Week 7.

Knox has had a breakout season and will be missed by Josh Allen. Spencer Brown's absence moved Daryl Williams to right tackle and promoted Cody Ford to the starting right guard position.

Miami Dolphins

Player	Position	Injury	Game Status
Jerome Baker	LB	Knee	Questionable
Noah Igbinoghene	CB	Knee/Ankle	Questionable
DaVante Parker	WR	Shoulder/Hamstring	Questionable
Greg Mancz	OL	Groin	Questionable

The Miami Dolphins are also in pretty good health entering Week 8. They don't have anyone ruled out. Jerome Baker and DaVante Parker are the two most important players on their injury report.

Baker will be tasked with covering Cole Beasley if he plays. Given how inconsistent the Dolphins' offensive line has been, they need Greg Mancz to stand a chance against the Bills' dominant front-seven.
