The Buffalo Bills will play the Kansas City Chiefs with out Thad Lewis today. Lewis has been battling a rib injury. That is bad news for the Bills, the Chiefs have a tough defense who have harassed quarterbacks on a regular basis. Earlier this season the Chiefs defense sacked mobile quarterback Terrelle Pryor 10 times.
In his place the Bills will start Jeff Tuel, an undrafted rookie. That means new signee Matt Flynn, formerly of the Oakland Raiders, will serve as back up for the game.
Tuel hasn’t really played this season. He has completed 8 of 20 passes for 80 yards and an interception.

#Bills will be without Thad Lewis today, source says, as his ribs didn’t improve as had been expected. He’s out.
