The Bills were without wide receiver D.J. Moore at Thursday's practice as he continues to work through the shoulder injury that knocked him out of Sunday's loss to the Patriots.
Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter): Bills WR D.J. Moore did not practice today due to his shoulder injury.
Moore aggravated the shoulder during the Week 4 game in New England, a setback that came after he had already been listed as questionable to return. Schefter reported at the time that the issue was not considered a long-term concern, and Thursday's absence appears to be the Bills being cautious with their top wideout rather than a sign of a more serious setback.
The Bills have leaned heavily on Moore since acquiring him, and his availability is central to an offense that has leaned on the ground game while grinding out wins despite a rash of turnovers. With the team's next game approaching, the practice report will be worth watching to see whether Moore returns to the field Friday or carries a designation into the weekend.
