Story summary

The Buffalo Bills and the Los Angeles Rams are set to face off in Week 5 of the NFL season on Monday night. The Bills announced that wide receiver DJ Moore will be inactive due to a shoulder injury he sustained since Week 2, which worsened during their game against New England last week. Moore had six receptions for 67 yards in Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers, but has been limited in practice recently.

Meanwhile, the Rams received some good news as ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that starting cornerback Jaylen Watson is expected to play after missing the past two weeks due to a dislocated left shoulder. Watson was injured during their game against the Denver Broncos. The return of Watson and absence of Moore could significantly impact the defensive strategies for both teams in this crucial matchup.
