The fourth-year player out of Villanova has emerged as Buffalo’s top corner and has been asked to shadow some of the NFL’s best receivers.

Otherwise, the team’s injury report was largely the same as on Wednesday. Linebacker Terrel Bernard (elbow), defensive end Joey Bosa (hamstring/wrist), offensive lineman Spencer Brown (shoulder), and receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) all remained limited.

Bills CB Christian Benford adds to Week 15 injury concerns ahead of a do-or-die clash with division rival Patriots.

CB, better known as top Bills cornerback Christian Benford, was sent on a first-and-10 blitz, unblocked, and he had Burrow in his sights for a takedown. Rather than trying to scramble or take the sack, Burrow’s reaction was to loft the ball toward Ja’Marr Chase.

Benford and the Bills’ defensive backs have their hands full with New England’s collection of weapons in the passing game. Former Buffalo receiver Stefon Diggs caught 10 passes for 146 yards in the first game these two teams played back in October.

CINCINNATI — Bills cornerback Christian Benford made a game-changing play in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 39-34 win over the Bengals. Benford was blitzing off the edge and jumped to intercept a Joe Burrow pass. He returned it 67-yards for a touchdown.
