"ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Bills will be without kicker Tyler Bass for a minimum of four weeks after he was placed on injured reserve on Friday. The move means that veteran Matt Prater, who the team signed to the practice squad on Thursday, is now set to kick for the Bills in the season opener vs. the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday (8:20 p.m. ET, NBC)."
"Bass initially was dealing with pelvic soreness during training camp and missed the first two preseason games with the injury. He returned for the third preseason game and made three-of-four field goal attempts. The kicker, however, was limited on the team's injury report with left hip/groin and did not participate in Thursday or Friday's practice. Coach Sean McDermott described Bass as dealing with a continuation of his soreness."
Tyler Bass was placed on injured reserve and will miss a minimum of four weeks due to persistent pelvic and left hip/groin soreness. The Bills signed veteran kicker Matt Prater to the practice squad and elevated him to handle kicking duties for Sunday’s season opener against the Baltimore Ravens. Bass missed the first two preseason games, returned for the third and made three of four field-goal attempts, then missed recent practices. Prater arrived Thursday and kicked Friday after recent success with the Arizona Cardinals. Cornerback Tre'Davious White is doubtful; Christian Benford and Keon Coleman are expected to play.
