Frank Gore Jr. - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Does grunt work in win Gore played nine offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps in the Bills' 41-31 win over the Lions last Thursday night.

Impact Gore did not appear in the box score, but the running back was a frequent pass blocker for Josh Allen in the Bills' offense. The practice squad elevation also participated in kick and punt coverage as he managed his role as the No. 3 running back in Ty Johnson's (hamstring) absence.

Elevated to active roster The Bills elevated Gore from the practice squad to the active roster for Thursday's game versus Detroit.

Impact With Ty Johnson (hamstring) unavailable for Sunday's 36-31 win over the Texans, Gore was elevated to the active roster for that contest. He logged 11 offensive snaps, though he finished with just one carry for three yards. Gore's workload likely won't be much different against the Lions, so his elevation from the practice squad was mostly for depth purposes, potentially indicating Johnson is in line to miss another game Thursday.

Reverts to practice squad Gore reverted to the practice squad after recording one carry for three yards in Buffalo's 36-31 win over Houston on Sunday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact The running back played on 11 offensive snaps and four special-teams snaps. Gore was elevated for Week 1 because Ty Johnson was dealing with a hamstring injury. If Johnson can play in Week 2, it seems unlikely that Gore will be elevated again.

Elevated for Sunday The Bills elevated Gore from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Impact Gore has been a practice squad staple for the Bills over the past two years. The running back has likely been elevated to the active roster as a depth precaution for a scenario in which Ty Johnson (hamstring) cannot suit up for Sunday's game against the Texans. If Johnson is good to go, Gore will likely be inactive on game day.

Back on Bills' practice squad Gore signed to Buffalo's practice squad Monday, Alec White and Mike Maynard of the team's official site report.

Impact Gore has spent his entire career with Buffalo to this point, but he's yet to log any regular-season action. The Southern Miss product did, however, have a limited role in both of Buffalo's playoff contests last year. Gore seems likely to spend most of the 2026 campaign on the practice squad unless injuries hit Buffalo's running back corps.

Signs reserve/future deal with Bills Buffalo signed Gore to a reserve/future contract Monday.

Impact Gore has yet to log a regular-season NFL snap, but he got into both of Buffalo's postseason games this year, tallying four snaps on offense and 10 on special teams while recording one catch for six yards. The Southern Miss product will remain with the organization and will get an opportunity to compete for a roster spot ahead of the 2026 campaign.

Elevated Friday Buffalo elevated Gore from the practice squad Friday.

Impact With Ty Johnson's (ankle) status in question for Saturday's divisional-round game against the Broncos, Gore will again have a chance to play behind James Cook and Ray Davis. Gore made his non-exhibition NFL debut last Sunday against the Jaguars, catching his lone target for six yards while playing four offensive snaps.

JANUARY 16 • ROTOWIRE

Lands back on practice squad The Bills reverted Gore to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Ty Johnson (ankle) missed Sunday's wild-card win over Jacksonville, giving Gore an opportunity to log his first non-preseason NFL action as a pro. Gore ended up playing four offensive snaps, catching his only target for six yards. If Johnson is unable to return to action for Saturday's divisional-round matchup against Denver, Gore could be elevated again, though he'd be well behind James Cook and Ray Davis in the RB pecking order.

Elevated to active roster The Bills elevated Gore to the active roster from their practice squad Saturday ahead of Sunday's wild-card matchup versus the Jaguars.

Impact Gore is set to be elevated for the first time this season, as Ty Johnson is questionable due to an ankle injury. Gore would serve as the team's No. 3 running back behind James Cook and Ray Davis if Johnson ends up being unable to play.
