Bills coach Sean McDermott said earlier team hopes to have more info Tuesday.
That would cause a major shakeup in the AFC, which saw the Kanas City Chiefs narrowly hold on to beat the Tennessee Titans on Sunday Night Football.
In the NFC, the Green Bay Packers fell further into the abyss with a loss to the Detroit Lions while the Seattle Seahawks took a stranglehold on the NFC West with yet another win.
How does each team stack up in our weekly Power Rankings? Let's dive in:
1. Philadelphia Eagles (+500) Last Week: No. 1
The Eagles stayed undefeated on Thursday Night Football, and Jalen Hurts may be the favorite to win the MVP at this point in the season.
2. Kansas City Chiefs (+500) LW: No. 3
Patrick Mahomes put the Chiefs on his back to lead them to an OT win and take the top spot in the AFC.
3. Buffalo Bills (+250) LW: No. 2
The Bills' season may be hanging in the balance with Josh Allen hurt...
4. Minnesota Vikings (+1800) LW: No. 4
Minnesota erased a 10-point fourth quarter deficit to grab another win in Week 9.
5. Dallas Cowboys (+1200) LW: No. 6
The Cowboys stay in the No. 5 spot on their bye week.
6. Baltimore Ravens (+1600) LW: No. 6
Even without his top weapons, Lamar Jackson was able to lead the Ravens to huge win before their bye week on Monday night.
7. Seattle Seahawks (+3500) LW: No. 9
The Seahawks are the biggest surprise in the league this season and have legit shot to win the division.
8. Miami Dolphins (+2500) LW: No. 12
Miami's offense continues to light the world on fire, with newcomer Jeff Wilson Jr. getting in on the action in Week 9.
9. Cincinnati Bengals (+2800) LW: No. 10
Five touchdowns from Joe Mixon led the Bengals to a blowout win over the Panthers.
10. San Francisco 49ers (+1200) LW: No. 12
The 49ers moved up a couple of spots on their bye week with the Rams and Cardinals losing.
11. Los Angeles Chargers (+3000) LW: No. 11
The Chargers barely survived th Atlanta Falcons, and they desperately need their receivers to get healthy to close this season.
12. New York Jets (+7000) LW: No. 16
What an upset! New York took down the Bills to pass its preseason win total of 5.5.
13. New York Giants (+8000) LW: No. 13
The Giants maintain their spot during their bye week.
14. New England Patriots (+6000) LW: No. 14
It wasn't pretty on offense, but the Patriots defense dominated the Colts in a 26-3 win in Week 9.
15. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (+2200) LW: No. 17
Tom Brady led the Bucs on a comeback win over the Rams to re-take the lead in the NFC South.
16. Tennessee Titans (+4500) LW: No. 7
Is this too far of a drop for Tennessee? Maybe, but the team can't score points right now and squandered a great upset spot against the Chiefs.
17. Los Angeles Rams (+5000) LW: No. 15
The Rams are in trouble after another abysmal offensive game against the Bucs in Week 9.
18. Atlanta Falcons (+15000) LW: No. 18
The Falcons could still win their division, but a heatbreaking loss to the Chargers didn't help their cause.
19. Washington Commanders (+25000) LW: No. 20
The Commanders blew a late lead to the Vikings, but Taylor Heinicke has looked really solid as the team's starter.
20. Arizona Cardinals (+15000) LW: No. 22
The Cardinals are all but done, losing to the Seahawks again in Week 9. This team simply isn't good enough to compete for a Super Bowl.
21. New Orleans Saints (+8000) LW: No. 21
A loss to Baltimore on MNF keeps the Saints in the same spot,. It may be time to bring Jameis Winston back, if he's healthy enough to play.
22. Cleveland Browns (+13000) LW: No. 23
The Browns jump up a spot on their bye week.
23. Chicago Bears (+50000) LW: No. 25

Jacksonville erased an early deficit against the Raiders to pick up a much needed win in Week 9. Trevor Lawrence played one of his best games of the season in the win.
26. Denver Broncos (+13000) LW: No. 26
The Broncos stay in the 26 spot on their bye week.
27. Indianapolis Colts (+40000) LW: No. 24
The Colts lost 26-3, fired Frank Reich and hired... Jeff Saturday? This is comical. The team doesn't have a coach who has called plays on the staff.
28. Detroit Lions (+50000) LW: No. 31
The Lions shut down the Packers, showing that just about anything can happen in this wild season.
29. Las Vegas Raiders (+15000) LW: No. 28
How many double-digit leads can the Raiders blow? Josh McDaniels may be going for the record.
30. Carolina Panthers (+100000) LW: No. 27
P.J. Walker was benched for Baker Mayfield in the Panthers' blowout loss in Week 9, but he will start in Week 10 on Thursday Night Football.
31. Pittsburgh Steelers (+100000) LW: No. 30
The Steelers dropped a spot on their bye week.
32. Houston Texans (+100000) LW: No. 32
