Description: Buffalo wide receiver Stevie Johnson (hamstring) is expected to play Sunday against the Rams. SOURCE: Jason La Canfora, CBSSports.com | Insight: Johnson is a middling wide receiver play this week, as he could be slowed by hamstring tightness. St. Louis has been underrated against wide receivers, allowing 18 fantasy points per game to the position in standard formats (ninth best in the NFL), and that number looks even better (15.6) when you remove the 44 points the Rams gave up to Green Bay WRs in Week 7. | | |

| 11/5/2012 5:27:00 PM |
Description: Bills coach Chan Gailey said receiver Stevie Johnson has "a bad thigh bruise." | Insight: "He played through it and it depends on how much it swells and how much of it drains into the lower part of his leg," Gailey said.

Description: Buffalo's No. 1 wideout Stevie Johnson leads the team in targets with 36, but he's only managed to catch 15 passes, a 41.7 percentage rate. | Insight: Johnson's low catch percentage has been hidden by the fact that he caught a touchdown in each of the Bills first three games. As a comparision, Donald Jones, the other starting receiver has caught 13-of-19 (68.4%). It says that he and Ryan Fitzpatrick aren't quite on the same page. | | |

Description: Robert Flores announced on ESPN that Stevie Johnson will play Sunday against the Jets.
