Bills coach Sean McDermott said Palmer (knee, ankle) will not practice Wednesday, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer's absence from practice is no surprise, given that he's been labeled week-to-week after suffering an ankle injury that forced him out of Buffalo's loss to the Falcons in Week 6 early. The veteran wideout has a chance to suit up Sunday against the Panthers if he's able to resume practicing on at least a limited basis Thursday and/or Friday.

Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Tuesday that Palmer (ankle) is viewed as week-to-week, Alec White of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer was forced out of the first half of Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons with an ankle injury, finishing the night with two receptions for 60 yards. Though Palmer may have been hard-pressed to make it back to the field if the Bills played on Sunday this week, he'll benefit from Buffalo being on bye for Week 7. The wideout will still need to resume practicing in some fashion during Week 8 to have a chance at playing in the Bills' next game Oct. 26 versus the Panthers.

Palmer (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Falcons, Lance Lysowski of The Buffalo News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer was injured early in the second quarter after being tackled awkwardly. He was able to jog on the sideline after being evaluated, but he ultimately won't return after logging two catches for 60 yards. The Bills will head into their bye following Monday's contest, so it's possible Palmer isn't forced to miss any additional time.

Palmer is questionable to return to Monday's game against Atlanta due to an ankle injury, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer had his leg twisted awkwardly while being tackled on a catch early in the second quarter. He was able to walk off the field under his own power and was evaluated in the medical tent. Palmer has since been spotted running up and down the sideline, though it's unclear if he'll be able to return to Monday's contest.

Palmer is being evaluated for an apparent lower-body injury during Monday's game against the Falcons, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo Newsreports.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer made a catch over the middle of the field early in the second quarter and was dragged down awkwardly. The injury looked to be serious, but he walked off the field under his own power and was spotted jogging on the sideline following an examination in the blue tent, per Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. An exact diagnosis remains unclear.

Palmer caught two passes on as many targets for 36 yards during the Bills' 23-20 loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer was held to a 23-yard catch in the the second quarter for much of the game before hauling in a 13-yard grab on the last play of regulation. He was on the field for 35 of 68 offensive snaps (51.5 percent), which was third most among Bills wide receivers behind Khalil Shakir (43) and Keon Coleman (42). Palmer saw nine targets in his Bills debut Week 1 against the Ravens, but he has seen three looks or less from Josh Allen in each of the four games since. The lack of targets makes Palmer hard to count on from a fantasy perspective heading into Buffalo's Week 6 road contest against Atlanta on Monday, Oct. 13.

Palmer caught two of three targets for 25 yards in the Bills' 31-19 win over the Saints on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer's playing time has dwindled in recent weeks. After playing over 62 percent of the offensive snaps in Week 1 against the Ravens, Palmer's workload has dipped in each game since, landing at just 25 percent against New Orleans. In a Buffalo offense that likes to cycle through its receivers and tight ends throughout the course of a game, Palmer holds minimal fantasy value unless injuries crop up ahead of him on the depth chart.

Palmer was on the field for 26 of a possible 60 snaps on offense in Thursday's 31-21 win over the Dolphins.
EDGE Analysis
After being targeted nine times Week 1 and three times Week 2, Palmer logged just one target (for five yards) Thursday. While a bounce-back is possible as soon as Week 4 against the Saints, fellow WRs Elijah Moore and Tyrell Shavers combined for five targets versus Miami, while Keon Coleman (45) and Khalil Shakir (42) paced the team in terms of Week 3 snaps.

Palmer caught two of three targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 30-10 win over the Jets.
EDGE Analysis
Most of Palmer's production came on a 32-yard reception from Mitchell Trubisky, who came in for a pair of plays in the first quarter as Josh Allen tended to a nosebleed and again for mop-up duty down the stretch. Despite taking a step back from his five-catch, 61-yard Bills debut, Palmer led the team in receiving yards in Week 2, as Buffalo went with a much more run-heavy approach. Palmer has established himself as a top-three wide receiver on the team alongside Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir heading into Thursday's home game against the Dolphins.

Palmer caught five of nine targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 41-40 win over the Ravens.
EDGE Analysis
Palmer played a solid 62 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps Sunday while operating as Buffalo's No. 3 wide receiver behind Keon Coleman and Khalil Shakir, who finished with snap percentages of 88 and 75 percent, respectively. Additionally, the veteran wideout's nine targets were tied for the second-highest total among all Bills pass catchers. Though he may be an inconsistent producer based on his role in an offense flush with playmakers, Palmer proved that he is a trusted target of Josh Allen in his regular season debut with Buffalo. Palmer will look to build upon his performance when the Bills visit the Jets in Week 2.
