Not suiting up Monday Breida (coach's decision) is inactive for Monday's game at Tennessee.

Impact Breida will be a healthy scratch for the fourth straight game heading into Buffalo's Week 7 bye. Taiwan Jones will be the reserve backfield option behind Zack Moss and Devin Singletary.

Another healthy scratch Breida (coach's decision) is listed as inactive Sunday at Kansas City.

Impact Since playing 12 offensive snaps and 17 more plays on special teams between Weeks 1 and 2, Breida has been a healthy scratch for three straight games. With Breida taking in the contest from the sideline, Devin Singletary and Zack Moss will split the running back work, while Taiwan Jones (hamstring) operates on special teams.

Inactive once again Breida is inactive for Sunday's game against Houston, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

Impact Breida was given a surprise nod over Zack Moss in the Bils' opener. He didn't do much with the opportunity (four yards on four carries) and wasn't given the ball in Week 2. He's now been made inactive the last two games, meaning his value is shot unless something happens to Moss or Devin Singletary.

Reverts to No. 3 running back Breida only saw two offensive snaps and did not record a carry in Sunday's win at Miami.

Impact Zack Moss was back in the mix after being a healthy scratch in Week 1. While Moss fumbled the ball once, he also scored two touchdowns and certainly looked better than Breida did with his Week 1 carries. Barring injury to Moss or starter Devin Singletary, Breida can safely be ignored again in most formats until further notice.

Likely No. 2 back Breida is set to serve as the No. 2 running back behind Devin Singletary with Zack Moss listed as inactive for the Week 1 matchup against Pittsburgh.

Impact In one of the bigger surprises of Week 1, Moss looks to be a healthy scratch in Buffalo, leaving Breida open for a potentially larger role than most expected headed into the season. Breida logged 254 rushing yards on 59 attempts in an injury-shortened 2020 season with Miami and is well accustomed to serving as a change-of-pace back, as that was his role through his first three seasons in the league with San Francisco.

Locked in as No. 3 back Breida has made the Bills' initial 53-man roster.

Impact The veteran will start the season behind Devin Singletary and a now healthy Zack Moss, but there's some competition out of the way after the team made its round of cuts Tuesday. Breida is the obvious candidate to take on more carries should an injury befall Singletary or Moss, as Taiwan Jones is mostly a special teams guy and Reggie Gilliam is a fullback/tight end.

One carry in preseason finale Breida ran for 16 yards on one carry in Saturday's preseason game against Green Bay.

Impact Breida added two catches for 10 yards on two targets. Though not necessarily a lock to make the final roster in Buffalo, Breida is expected to make the team over fellow speed specialist Kerrith Whyte, who ran for 11 yards on five carries Saturday. In that scenario Breida would likely serve as a change-of-pace runner behind the slower but arguably steadier duo of Zack Moss and Devin Singletary.

Twelve touches in preseason opener Breida rushed 10 times for 27 yards and caught both of his targets for 15 yards in Friday's 16-15 preseason win over the Lions.

Impact Breida watched Devin Singletary tear up Detroit's run defense for 42 yards on eight carries and a receiving touchdown, but Buffalo's third-stringer only managed 2.7 yards per carry himself. With Zack Moss sidelined by a hamstring injury, Breida should continue to work as the No. 2 option behind Singletary in the short term, though Moss's injury is not considered serious at this time.

Strong effort in camp early on Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo relays that Breida "has really shown off his speed and quickness" through the early stages of training camp.

Impact With that in mind, Capaccio suggests that Breida "could wind up being more of a factor in the (Buffalo) offense than many anticipated" when the running back joined the team back in March. That said, as long as both Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are healthy and in the mix, Breida doesn't have a clear path to steady volume. The 26-year-old could, however, make his mark in a complementary role, given the fleet wheels he adds to the Bills' backfield mix.

No roster lock Breida, signed by the Bills to a one-year deal as a free agent this offseason, will need to fend off challenges from Antonio Williams and Christian Wade for the last open spot in t...

Impact Devin Singletary and Zack Moss are expected to serve as the 1-2 punch to lead the backfield, while Taiwan Jones is expected to make the team simply by way of special teams prowess. Breida is one of the NFL's fastest running backs and has more experience than Williams and Wade, so the No. 3 job would appear to be his to lose. Breida also has more special teams experience than anyone else in the running back corps aside from Jones. With good hands to go with it all, Breida is at least worth keeping an eye on if he does make the team and injuries should strike Singletary or Moss, as was the case last season.
