The Buffalo Bills have an injury concern on defense before even taking the field for their Week 6 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Monday night.

The injury concern is with defensive lineman DaQuan Jones, who suffered a calf injury during pre-game warm-ups, according to ESPN's Alaina Getzenberg.

Here's the latest on Jones' status for the contest.

Getzenberg adds that because of his calf injury, Jones will not be suiting up against the Falcons on Monday night. The exact severity of the injury remains unknown.

The Bills reporter adds that Deone Walker was working with the first-team defense in warm-ups, so it looks like he'll get the nod in Jones' place.

The Bills have been very banged-up along the defensive line this season, with Ed Oliver missing multiple games due to injury and both DeWayne Carter and T.J. Sanders being on injured reserve. Carter is out for the season.

Oliver is making his return to the field in Week 6, though.
