Buffalo Bills to Rest Key Players Against New England Patriots, Mitch Trubisky Set to Lead Offense

The Buffalo Bills have clinched the #2 seed in the standings, rendering this upcoming game of little consequence. As a result, the team plans to play conservatively and rest key players. Despite a close matchup a few weeks ago in which the New England Patriots narrowly lost on the road by only three points, the Bills are expected to have backup quarterback, Mitch Trubisky, see significant playing time alongside starter Josh Allen. Trubisky, who has had limited playing time this season, will likely face a challenge against the Patriots' strong pass defense, which ranks 15th in the league by conceding an average of 215 passing yards per game. While James Cook is anticipated to play only a few series, rookie QB Drake Maye is expected to showcase his skills against the Bills' 22nd-ranked pass defense.
