Buffalo Bills | News, Scores, Schedules & Standings

The Buffalo Bills are back after a very long summer away, and the Indianapolis Colts are coming to town to kick off the preseason.

It won't be the full version of the Bills we are used to seeing. Quarterback Josh Allen and receiver Stefon Diggs won't play in the Bills opener on Saturday, but several Buffalo first-teamers will dip their toes in the water.

"They'll play give or take a quarter just again, depending on who it is and in the situation in the game," coach Sean McDermott said. "Overall, we want to get them where they need to go but also then, take a good look at some of the young players."

Meanwhile, the Colts are starting Anthony Richardson under center. The No. 4 overall pick out of Florida has been competing alongside veteran journeyman Gardner Minshew for the starting job, but it appears Richardson will get the first opportunity for Saturday's game.
