Next man up Spector will start at middle linebacker Monday against the Jaguars, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

Impact Spector stepped into the role during Week 2's win over the Dolphins after Terrel Bernard (pectoral) exited with an injury and piled up 10 tackles (seven solo) in the process. With Bernard still sidelined and ruled out for Week 3, Spector will once again be called upon to handle the middle linebacker spot against Jacksonville.

Racks up 10 stops Spector recorded 10 tackles (seven solo) during Thursday's 31-10 win over the Dolphins.

Impact Spector played 81 percent of defensive snaps Week 2 with Terrel Bernard (pectoral) exiting the game early. Bernard is reportedly a candidate to miss roughly one month due to a pec strain, and in deeper IDP formats Spector will vault onto the fantasy radar for the duration of his recovery. Spector will look to make an impact again versus Jacksonville in Week 3 on Monday Night Football.

Deemed week-to-week Spector is considered week-to-week due to a calf injury, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Spector has been out of practice since last week and didn't participate in Buffalo's second game of the exhibition slate.
