Bills vs. Dolphins Thursday Night Football live updates: Josh Allen, Tua Tagovailoa face off in AFC East duel of playoff hopefuls

The Buffalo Bills and Miami Dolphins kick off Week 2 of the NFL season in Miami Gardens tonight, and with the teams both eyeing the AFC East crown to get home-field advantage for at least one round of the playoffs, should they qualify. This early season matchup is important. Both teams made the playoffs last season, and both were knocked out by the eventual Super Bowl champion Kansas City Chiefs — Miami lost in Kansas City in one of the coldest games in NFL history in the wild-card round and Buffalo lost at home the following week.

The Dolphins will be without running back Raheem Mosert (chest), while De’Von Achane is active despite missing multiple days of practice with an ankle injury. That could shift more pressure onto Tagovailoa and the Dolphins’ passing game, led by Tyreek Hill, who’s still dealing with the fallout from his being detained by police ahead of the Week 1 win over Jacksonville. He didn’t seem phased by Sunday’s incident, catching five passes for 130 yards and a touchdown.

On the Bills’ side, cornerback Taron Johnson (forearm) and defensive end Dawuane Smoot (toe) have been ruled out for the game.
