The Buffalo Bills are facing significant challenges on defense as they prepare for their upcoming game against the Houston Texans. With edge rusher Von Miller suspended for four games due to a personal conduct policy violation, they also lost defensive tackle Ed Oliver to a hamstring injury and Austin Johnson to an oblique injury.

These injuries leave the Bills with limited options, forcing them to rely on rookies like Javon Solomon and DeWayne Carter for crucial playing time. Head coach Sean McDermott expressed confidence in the team's ability to adapt, highlighting the potential of their younger players.
