The Buffalo Bills are activating two key players from injured reserve ahead of Saturday’s AFC Divisional Round matchup at the Denver Broncos.<\/p>\n
Defensive tackle Ed Oliver and wide receiver Curtis Samuel have been activated to the 53-man roster and are eligible to play against the Broncos; both players are still listed as questionable on the team’s final injury report.<\/p>\n
The Bills also elevated running back Frank Gore Jr. and wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. from the practice squad.<\/p>\n
Oliver (bicep) and Samuel (elbow) had their practice windows opened at the beginning of the week. Oliver has been limited in practice while Samuel has been a full participant the last two practices.<\/p>\n
Buffalo’s defensive line and wide receiver room have been hit by injuries this season so the potential return of both players could be a big factor for the team. Oliver hasn’t played since Oct. 26 at Carolina, while Samuel’s last appearance was Nov. 16 against Tampa Bay.<\/p>\n
