Gilliam (hip) was a full participant in Wednesday's walk-through practice. Gilliam has missed Buffalo's last two contests but appears ready to return to the field. He's played just 40 offensive snaps this season but is a mainstay on the Bills' special teams units.
-
Gilliam (hip) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Colts. Gilliam has been limited in practice all week due to a hip injury, and the issue is serious enough for the 27-year-old fullback to be sidelined for a second straight game. With Gilliam sidelined Sunday, the Bills may utilize tight ends Dawson Knox and Quintin Morris more in run-blocking schemes.

Gilliam (hip) was estimated as a limited participant for Buffalo's walk-through practice Wednesday. Gilliam was also listed as a limited participant on the Bills' first official practice report for Week 9 before he ultimately sat out Sunday versus the Dolphins. He'll likely have to practice in full Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Head coach Sean McDermott said that Gilliam (hip) won't play in Sunday's game against the Dolphins, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports. Gilliam was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice before not taking any reps Thursday, so the Bills' decision to rule him out isn't especially surprising. The fullback has played primarily on special teams this season and has yet to receive a carry or draw a target over his 35 snaps on offense.
-
Gilliam played all 26 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Titans. For the first time all season, Gilliam didn't take the field on offense as the Bills went without a fullback. The Bills hadn't featured Gilliam much on offense prior to Week 7, as he hadn't exceeded seven snaps in any of the previous six games and didn't carry the ball or draw a target.
