D.J. Moore got back on the practice field Friday.
Now the Buffalo Bills have to decide whether that was enough to get him back in the lineup.
Moore is questionable for Buffalo’s Week 6 game against the Las Vegas Raiders after missing Monday night’s overtime win over the Los Angeles Rams because of a shoulder injury.
The Bills visit the Raiders at 4:25 p.m. ET Sunday at Allegiant Stadium.
Here’s the latest on Moore’s status.
Is D.J. Moore playing today?
D.J. Moore is officially questionable for the Bills’ game against the Raiders.
Moore did not practice Wednesday or Thursday before returning on a limited basis Friday. Bills head coach Joe Brady said Buffalo’s injured players had been doing work on the side and participating in walkthroughs before returning to practice.
“If they’re
ready to go, they’re going to play,” Brady said Friday.
The Bills will announce their inactive players about 90 minutes before kickoff.
Moore missed Monday’s 37-34 overtime victory against the Rams after aggravating the shoulder injury that has bothered him since Week 2.
He is one of five Bills listed as questionable for Sunday. Wide receiver Joshua Palmer, defensive tackle Ed Oliver, cornerback Dee Alford and defensive lineman T.J. Sanders also carry questionable designations.
