The Buffalo Bills are getting their starting tight end back for Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs.
They have activated Dawson Knox off injured reserve and released linebacker A.J. Klein.

This will be Knox’s first game since Oct. 22 when he played against the New England Patriots. He has missed the last five games with a wrist injury.
Knox was able to practice this week and it led to head coach Sean McDermott saying that Knox has a “good chance” of being activated for Sunday’s game.
Even though he hasn’t been that productive this season (only 15 receptions for 102 yards and a touchdown), he still can break out at any time.
If he could do it against the Chiefs, it would go a long way toward the Bills scoring a massive upset win.
Of course, the Bills will also deploy Dalton Kincaid at tight end. The rookie from Utah has 56 receptions for 474 yards and two touchdowns this season.
Kickoff will be at 4:25 p.m. ET and it’ll be televised by CBS.
