With kickoff approaching, both teams have announced who will sit this one out with the Week 10 list of inactives. As is often the case, each team had injuries play a role in their game day roster decisions.

For that reason, we quickly recap the injury report for both teams heading into the weekend.

The good news for the Bills is that James Cook is set to play, following an early scare. Cook was dealing with an ankle injury suffered during their Week 9 win, but he's active in this one. He was also not included in the final injury report. Had Cook missed time, it would have been difficult to replace him with his backups struggling to move the ball consistently when called upon.

OUT:
A.J. Epenesa, EDGE, Concussion
