During his weekly appearance on WGR550, Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott declared four players as OUT for Week 5 against the Texans.
DT Austin Johnson (oblique), S Taylor Rapp (concussion), WR Khalil Shakir (ankle), and DT Ed Oliver (hamstring) will all miss Sunday's game.
CB Taron Johnson and LB Terrel Bernard will practice Friday and both will be listed as questionable for Sunday's game.
For Oliver's case, the defensive tackle got hurt during Thursday's practice.
"He came off the field and went right into the examination," McDermott said of Oliver.
OT Dion Dawkins (hamstring) "should be fine" for Sunday, according to McDermott.
With Rapp out, McDermott expects rookie Cole Bishop to start at safety across from Damar Hamlin.
The Bills will update their full injury report after Friday's practice.
