They're looking at being rather shorthanded when they take on the Steelers.

On Friday, the Bills announced four key players will be out.
The two most notable from a narrative perspective are left tackle Dion Dawkins and right tackle Spencer Brown. Bills QB Josh Allen was sacked eight times in the loss to the Texans, and now he won't have either of his bookends as he goes up against T.J. Watt and the Steelers.

So too will be wide receiver Curtis Samuel, who has been less crucial this season but is still one less weapon for Allen to count on.

The Bills have left Dalton Kincaid's status up in the air. The tight end has already missed a few games but is officially questionable heading into the weekend.
Buffalo is 7-4, while Pittsburgh is 6-5. Sunday's game could be a key one in the AFC playoff picture. And the Bills will be far from full strength.
