Buffalo placed Spector (calf) on injured reserve Saturday, Chris Jenkins of the team's official site reports. Spector landed on the injury report Friday and logged a limited practice that day due to a calf injury. It appears that the issue is somewhat serious given that the linebacker has been placed on IR one day later. Spector's role has fluctuated this season -- for example, he logged every one of the the Bills' defensive snaps in Week 8 versus Seattle due to Terrel Bernard being sidelined but played exclusively on special teams one week later against Miami upon Bernard's return.

Spector recorded five tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 31-10 win at Seattle. With Terrel Bernard (ankle) out and Dorian Williams presumably playing through a knee issue, Spector functioned as Buffalo's top linebacker in Week 8. Whether he gets a similar snap share in Week 9 versus the Dolphins will depend largely on whether Bernard is able to return to action.

Spector recorded six total tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Bills' 35-10 loss to the Ravens on Sunday. The middle linebacker also played on 96 percent of the defensive snaps, the third straight week in which he played on at least 80 percent of the defensive snaps in place of injured starter Terrel Bernard. Spector has 22 tackles (14 solo) this season.

Spector recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) during Thursday's 31-10 win over the Dolphins. Spector played 81 percent of Buffalo's defensive snaps Week 2 with Terrel Bernard (pectoral) exiting the game early. Bernard is reportedly a candidate to miss roughly one month due to a pec strain, and in deeper IDP formats Spector will vault onto the fantasy radar for the duration of his recovery. Spector will look to make an impact again versus Jacksonville in Week 3 on Monday Night Football.

Spector (calf) was left off the Bills' injury report Wednesday ahead of the team's regular-season opener Sunday against the Cardinals. Spector missed a couple of weeks in August due to a calf injury, but he now appears to be past the issue. Now that Spector has returned to full health, he's expected to be one of the Bills' top rotational linebackers heading into his third year in the NFL.
