The Bills injury report brought some good news over the course of the week as wide receivers Robert Woods and Sammy Watkins were both practicing and in line to play in the same game for the first time since the second week of the regular season.

Nothing has changed on that front and coach Rex Ryan said Friday, via Mike Rodak of ESPN.com, that both wideouts are “ready to roll” for Sunday’s game against the Steelers. The big question mark now is whether defensive tackle Kyle Williams will also be in the lineup.

Williams wasn’t on the injury report on Wednesday or Thursday, but he did not practice on Friday after his back locked up on him on Thursday night. Ryan said he is “concerned” that Williams, who has been listed as questionable, will not be able to play.

That would be a boost to a Steelers offense that is coming off a strong game against the Giants and will be trying to lead the team to a fourth straight win as they push for the AFC North title.
