Saturday Sports Update
Top: We're getting closer to Sunday's AFC Divisional Playoff game between the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals. The Bills began their practice week with a walk-through on Wednesday before getting into full practices on Thursday and Friday. Head coach Sean McDermott indicated during a conference call with reporters on Friday that the team was trying to manage the wear and tear of a season that has been filled with injuries. Speaking of injuries, the Bengals will be thin on their offensive line for Sunday's game, with starting tackles Alex Cappa and Jonah Williams both ruled out.
