The Bills designated Anderson (forearm) to return from injured reserve Tuesday.
Anderson, who was placed on IR prior to Week 5 with the fractured forearm, will resume practicing with the team Wednesday and will be eligible to return for the Bills' final two games. Due to the safety's lengthy layoff, it's unclear if he'll be able to give it a go Sunday against the Patriots, but the Week 17 matchup with the Dolphins seems like a more reasonable target. If Anderson is activated from IR, he would likely see most of his action on special teams rather than in the secondary.
