Reviewing how healthy the Bills were in 2023

When it comes to the health of the Buffalo Bills last year, the results were mixed. The Bills’ starters missed 52 regular-season games due to injury during the season, below the league average of 60 games missed.

Buffalo was the 13th-healthiest roster in the NFL, with the healthiest offense — losing just six games to injury by its offensive starters: five by tight end Dawson Knox and one by tight end Dalton Kincaid. But the Bills had the fourth-most games lost by starters on defense with 46 — led by cornerback Tre’Davious White (13 games), linebacker Matt Milano (12) and defensive tackle DaQuan Jones (10).
