        Matt Prater Has Quad Injury

        Matt Prater Has Quad Injury

        Bills K Matt Prater was knocked out of Sunday's game vs. the Jets with a quad injury. That puts him in doubt for the playoffs. Prater had just returned from a two-game absence. K Michael Badgley missed a pair of XPs in his place. We'll keep you updated on Buffalo's kicker room, but you should avoid the situation in early playoff drafts.

        Bills K Matt Prater (quad) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Browns. He’ll be replaced by K Michael Badgley. He’s an iffy fantasy play with wintry weather expected in Cleveland.

        The Bills signed K Michael Badgley to their practice squad. He's the likely replacement for K Matt Prater, who's sidelined with a quad injury. Badgley made 10 of 11 FGs for the Colts earlier this season and owns a decent 83% career conversion rate. He could be a viable Week 16 fantasy start with the Bills big favorites over the Browns. We'll just need to keep an eye on the weather in Cleveland for that one.
