The Buffalo Bills received bad news on Monday when coach Sean McDermott announced tight end Dawson Knox will have surgery on his injured right wrist.
McDermott wasn’t sure when Knox would be able to return from the lingering injury.
“I wish I could tell you,” McDermott told reporters Monday. “It’s too early right now. The decision was just made to go ahead and get that done.”
A third-round pick by Buffalo in 2019, Knox was hurt in the Bills’ London game Oct. 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars but has continued to play since then.
Knox had one reception for 10 yards in Sunday’s loss at New England and has 15 catches for 102 yards and one touchdown through Buffalo’s seven games this season.
With Knox unlikely to play this week, rookie tight end Dalton Kincaid will be the starter when Buffalo hosts the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a Thursday Night Football contest.
