The Buffalo Bills have made strategic roster adjustments ahead of their AFC Championship showdown against the Kansas City Chiefs, elevating veteran safety Kareem Jackson and interior offensive lineman Will Clapp from the practice squad. This marks the second postseason elevation for both players. Jackson's promotion follows the confirmation that safety Taylor Rapp will miss the game, leaving the Bills with a thin safety depth. Jackson, who joined the Bills during training camp, has contributed during the regular season and provides essential experience in this critical matchup.
Clapp's elevation adds depth to an offensive line that often rotates multiple players. His previous postseason experience could be pivotal if any injuries occur. With Rapp and cornerback Christian Benford sidelined, the Bills have a healthy roster as they prepare for the high-stakes encounter at Arrowhead Stadium. The team's overall health could be a decisive factor as they aim for a return to the Super Bowl.
