Buffalo will not have at least two players for Saturday’s divisional round game against Denver.
Head coach Sean McDermott said Thursday that safety Jordan Poyer and cornerback Maxwell Harriston have been ruled out for the game.

Poyer suffered a hamstring injury and Harriston suffered an ankle injury.
Running back Ty Johnson may or may not play Saturday as he is still dealing with an ankle injury. He did not play in the wild-card win over the Jaguars.
McDermott noted via Alec White of the team’s website that the club will take “Similar approach to last week” When it comes to Johnson’s availability. He will be limited in practice on Thursday and his performance in games is also questionable.
Additionally, defensive tackle Ed Oliver (bicep) and receiver Curtis Samuel (elbow) will both be questionable after returning to practice from injured reserve earlier this week. Oliver will be a limited participant on Thursday, while Samuel will be a regular participant. This is a positive sign for Samuel’s potential availability, which is good news for a receiver who suffered multiple injuries last week.
Safety Damar Hamlin (pectoral) will be listed as questionable, as will linebacker Terrell Bernard (calf).
