Epenesa (ribs) will not play Saturday against the Chargers. There was some hope the fourth-year pass rusher would be available Saturday, but he'll ultimately miss his second consecutive game. Kingsley Jonathan and Shaq Lawson will likely see additional opportunities in pass-rushing situations.

Epenesa (ribs) should still be considered week-to-week, according to head coach Sean McDermott, and the Bills are still gathering information Wednesday as to whether a stint on injured reserve is an option, Jon Scott of Spectrum News 1 reports. Epenesa suffered the injury in Sunday's game against the Chiefs and appears to potentially be looking at a multi-week absence, considering IR may be an option for the 25-year-old. Any potential absence for him would be a blow to the depth of Buffalo's defensive line and ultimately lead to increased snaps for any of Leonard Floyd, Shaq Lawson or Kingsley Jonathan.

Epenesa is week-to-week after suffering a rib injury in Sunday's win over the Chiefs, per head coach Sean McDermott, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports. Epenesa tried to return to the game after suffering the injury, but he was only able to last one play before exiting again. Whether or not he'll recover in time to suit up in Week 15 against the Cowboys is in question, but his practice status in the days ahead will shed better light on his potential availability for the matchup.

Epenesa (ribs) has been cleared to return to Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Epenesa briefly left Sunday's game following his interception of Patrick Mahomes. Epenesa will return as the depth edge rusher behind Greg Rousseau and Von Miller.

Epenesa (ankle) is considered doubtful to play Thursday versus the Lions, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Epenesa suffered an ankle injury in Week 11 against the Browns and was unable to return to the contest. It appears like the injury is still bothering him and he'll likely be forced to take a seat for Thursday's Thanksgiving Day matchup. If the defensive end can't go, Shaq Lawson and Carlos Basham would be set for increases in usage against Detroit.
