Saturday Sports Update
Top: NFL teams tend to use their third preseason game as their "dress rehearsal" for the regular season, and the Buffalo Bills are taking that approach today. Head coach Sean McDermott announced this week that quarterback Josh Allen (left) would be one of many starters getting playing time for the Bills' preseason tilt against the Green Bay Packers. Stefon Diggs (right) should also be seeing the field as well. Listen to today's preseason finale on WDOE (94.9 FM/101.5 FM/1410 AM), with kickoff from Highmark Stadium scheduled for 1:00 PM!
