Joshua Palmer Fantasy Stats

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee, ankle) was listed as a non-participant for Thursday's practice session, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN reports. Palmer is trending in the wrong direction to play in Sunday's matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals after beginning the week with two missed practices. The 26-year-old hasn't played a big role for the Bills when healthy, collecting 18 receptions for 272 yards and zero touchdowns on 29 targets in eight games. With Palmer's limited impact and Keon Coleman's disappointing second season, the Bills have signed multiple free agents off the street for wide receiver help, bringing back Gabe Davis and recently signing a speed threat in Brandin Cooks after he was released by the New Orleans Saints. Davis and Cooks could see the field more on Sunday if Palmer does not play, but they are both deep-league dart throws, at best.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) will not practice on Wednesday, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. Palmer is not on the right track to play this Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 14 after he was ruled out for last Sunday's win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 26-year-old is a receiver that belongs on the waiver wire in all 12-team fantasy football leagues anyway, as he just has not had a big enough role in Buffalo's offense in his first year with the team. Palmer currently has only 18 receptions on 29 targets for 272 yards, and he's still searching for his first touchdown. The fact that he wasn't able to do anything with Keon Coleman out for two games due to disciplinary reasons -- tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) was also out -- tells you all you need to know. Gabe Davis and recent acquisition Brandin Cooks will be more involved deep down the field this weekend if Palmer misses a second straight game.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers due to an ankle injury. Palmer returned from injury in Week 12 against the Houston Texans, recording two catches (four targets) for 21 yards, but entered Week 13 listed as questionable and will ultimately not suit up. The 26-year-old hasn't made a big impact since signing with the Bills in the offseason, totaling 18 receptions for 272 yards and no touchdowns on 29 targets in eight games. Keon Coleman and Brandin Cooks are both active on Sunday against Pittsburgh and should factor into the passing game along with Khalik Shakir with Palmer sidelined.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer hauled in two of four targets for 21 yards in Week 12's 23-19 loss to the Houston Texans. Palmer has been quiet in his first season in Buffalo, as he's currently averaging his fewest fantasy points per game of his entire five-year career. Palmer is a part of one of the worst receiving units in the NFL and has been unable to stand out as a top option in this offense. Maybe this is the week, as the Bills face the league's worst defense against wide receivers this season in the Pittsburgh Steelers. While Palmer may be a cheap and tempting DFS option in Week 13, fantasy managers should steer clear of starting the veteran receiver this week.

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) will be limited in practice on Friday and will be listed as questionable to play in the Week 13 contest on Sunday against the hosting Pittsburgh Steelers, according to The Buffalo News' Katherine Fitzgerald. Palmer missed Wednesday's practice but will close out the week with two limited sessions, leaving hope that he will be active this weekend. Curtis Samuel has already been ruled out for Buffalo, but even if Palmer is active on Sunday, which is likely, fantasy managers should have better flex options to choose from. The 26-year-old has yet to score a touchdown in 2025 in his first year in Buffalo, and he just has not seen enough volume to warrant a roster spot in most leagues. With Keon Coleman being a healthy scratch the last two games, Palmer has had just four catches on nine targets for 38 yards.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice session. Palmer was a bit banged up heading into last Thursday's game versus the Houston Texans. Despite that, Palmer suited up and hauled in two of his four targets for 21 yards in the loss. It appears Palmer is still dealing with an ankle issue right now. Barring any setbacks, Palmer should be ready to go for the Week 13 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 26-year-old isn't an ideal fantasy option when healthy anyway.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer can safely be left out of lineups in most formats when his team travels to Houston to play the Texans for Week 12's Thursday Night Football game. The former Los Angeles Charger has been a disappointment in his first season with Buffalo, during which he has logged only 16 receptions and is still looking for his first touchdown. This week, Palmer will have the added challenge of the single worst matchup in football: Houston ranks No. 1 against PPR wide receivers. Though the status of fellow receiver Khalil Shakir (personal) is unknown, and Keon Coleman is coming off a healthy scratch last week, Palmer hasn't had a big enough role to rely upon for fantasy lineups.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle, knee) was listed as a limited practice participant on Monday's estimated injury report. Receivers Mecole Hardman (calf) and Curtis Samuel (elbow, neck) were listed as non-participants. Palmer missed Weeks 8-10 with ankle and knee injuries, but he was able to return to action on Sunday in the win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 26-year-old played 50% of the offensive snaps but caught only two of his five targets for 17 yards. It was an especially disappointing stat line with receiver Keon Coleman out for disciplinary reasons and tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) sidelined by injury in a game in which the Bills put up 44 points and moved the ball at will against Tampa. Even if Coleman and Kincaid both miss another game this Thursday night, Palmer should be faded in Week 12 in a much tougher matchup against the Houston Texans and their top-ranked defense.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (knee, ankle) is a full participant in Wednesday's practice, according to Alaina Getzenburg of ESPN. Palmer has missed three consecutive games since getting banged up in Buffalo's Week 6 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, but is on track to make his return on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 26-year-old wasn't very impactful in the six games he's played this season, catching 14 of his 20 targets for 234 yards. Palmer could provide a jolt to a Bills passing game that struggled in Week 10 against the Dolphins, but he is safe to leave on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle, knee) is officially inactive for a divisional clash on Sunday against the Miami Dolphins in Week 10. Palmer put in limited practices this week, but the Bills didn't think he was ready to return to action just yet. The 26-year-old pass-catcher has not played since Week 6 and has been a disappointment so far in his first year in Buffalo after joining the team in free agency. With Palmer out again in Miami this weekend, the Bills will continue on with Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman as their top options at the position, with Elijah Moore, Curtis Samuel, and Tyrell Shavers battling for WR3 targets. Palmer's next chance to return will be for a Week 11 tilt against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He should remain on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues. Palmer has only 14 catches for 234 yards and no touchdowns so far in 2025 on 20 targets.
