Bills' Greg Rousseau: Misses practice Wednesday
Rotowire
Rousseau (foot) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.
It's not clear whether he picked up the injury during the week or during Sunday's game versus the Dolphins. It's also not clear whether his status for Week 5 is actually in any jeopardy, so it will be worth keeping an eye on Buffalo's injury reports Thursday and Friday.

Bills' Greg Rousseau: Two sacks in win
Rotowire
Rousseau had three tackles including two sacks in Sunday's 48-20 win over the Dolphins.
Rousseau is up to 3.0 sacks on the season, tied for second on the team with Ed Oliver and half a sack behind Leonard Floyd. The defensive front should soon receive even more support with Von Miller (knee) returning to practice this week.

Bills' Greg Rousseau: Makes strides in second season
Rotowire
Rousseau finished the 2022 regular season with 37 tackles, eight sacks, four passes defended and one forced fumble over 13 games.
The 8.0 sacks -- which co-led the team with Von Miller -- is the number that sticks out the most considering Rousseau missed time with an ankle injury and also that the Bills typically rotate their defensive linemen more than most teams. He also stepped it up after Miller was lost for the season with a knee injury. Rousseau has mammoth size and has now proven a knack for getting after the quarterback, so he could be relied upon for more in the 2023 season, as the Bills have some cap issues and likely won't be able to run as deep as they have the last two seasons.

Bills' Greg Rousseau: Ruled out for Sunday
Rotowire
Rousseau (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Rousseau suffered a high-ankle sprain in a Week 9 matchup with the Jets, missing the second half of that contest. The 22-year-old defensive end has recorded 21 total tackles so far this season, and his five sacks are good for the second-highest total on Buffalo's formidable defense. In Rousseau's absence, A.J. Epenesa and Shaq Lawson should see increased playing time.

Bills' Greg Rousseau: Dealing with high-ankle sprain
Rotowire
Rousseau sustained a high-ankle sprain during Sunday's 20-17 loss at the Jets and is considered week-to-week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Rousseau missed the second half of Buffalo's loss in Week 9 with the injury, and he's now in jeopardy of missing multiple games as he recovers. The sophomore first-rounder was on pace for a 12-sack season heading into Sunday's game, but until he's ready to return, A.J. Epenesa and Shaq Lawson should see increased reps.

Rotowire
Rousseau is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears with an ankle injury.
Rousseau did not record a tackle in the first half and was listed as questionable coming out of halftime. With the 2021 first-round pick sidelined, expect Carlos Basham and A.J. Epenesa to step up into bigger roles opposite Von Miller on Sunday.

Rotowire
Rousseau registered four solo tackles, one sack and one pass defense during Thursday's 31-10 win over the Rams.
Rousseau tipped a pass intended for Cooper Kupp at the line in the first quarter and sacked Matthew Stafford on a third-and-short situation in the third quarter. The second-year defensive end played 45 of the team's 67 defensive snaps and will likely be a key piece in Buffalo's defense in 2022.
