The Buffalo Bills will be a bit shorthanded to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars.
It's not a great time for injuries, of course. It's Wild Card Weekend. It's win or go home.
The Bills and Jags will play on Sunday in Florida at 1 p.m. ET
On Friday, Bills coach Sean McDermott announced that three quality defenders will miss the game.

Bills injury report
McDermott shared on local radio that these three guys are out:
- CB Maxwell Hairston
- S Damar Hamlin
- LB Terrel Bernard
Hairston hurt his calf in the fourth quarter of Week 18, which wasn't ideal.
Hamlin (pectoral) hasn't played since Week 6.
Bernard has a calf problem and has battled injuries on and off for much of the season.
The Bills got Ty Johnson back at practice, which is good news for the RB depth chart.
Joshua Palmer (ankle) didn't practice Friday and is questionable.
Kicker Matt Prater practiced Thursday and got to rest Friday, intentionally, as he works through a right quad injury.
Buffalo has most of its key pieces, and at some of those positions, it'll just have to be next man up.
