Washington Redskins linebacker London Fletcher is active and starting against the Buffalo Bills.

Fletcher is playing in his 215th consecutive NFL game - and making his 170th straight start - despite being hampered by a hamstring injury sustained in last week's loss to Carolina. Fletcher came in as questionable after not practicing Wednesday, and being limited Thursday and Friday.

Washington is without starting offensive lineman Trent Williams for the second straight game because of an ankle injury. Receiver Santana Moss (hand), cornerback Phillip Buchanon (neck/knee), and fullback Mike Sellers (back) are also out.

Running back Ryan Torain starts in place of Tim Hightower, who was placed on injured reserve earlier in the week because of a torn knee ligament.

Buffalo is missing defensive lineman Kyle Williams (foot) for the second straight game.
