Bills OL Alec Anderson (knee) out week-to-week
Anderson proved to be a capable backup last season and he made four starts at tackle while playing all 17 regular-season games. He also saw action in all three of Buffalo's playoff games.
Anderson played 27 percent of the offensive snaps for a Buffalo position group that allowed the fewest sacks (14) in the NFL.
Anderson, 25, went undrafted out of UCLA during the 2023 draft and hooked on with the Buffalo practice squad.
Also Thursday, tight end Dawson Knox was on the practice field for the first time this season. Knox (hamstring) began training camp on the active/non-football injury list.
Knox, 28, caught 22 passes for 311 yards and one touchdown in 16 games (13 starts) last season.
Overall, Knox has 193 receptions for 2,277 yards and 23 touchdowns over 85 games (71 starts) in six seasons with the Bills. He was a Pro Bowl selection in 2022.

Indianapolis Colts LB Zaire Franklin making training camp debut
Colts' LB Zaire Franklin is set to make his training camp debut on Saturday. Indianapolis Colts' linebacker Zaire Franklin was on the field and warming up prior to Saturday's training camp practice. Franklin has yet to practice during training camp up to this point as he continued to recover from offseason ankle surgery. Earlier in the week, Shane Steichen expressed his optimism that Franklin would be able to return fairly soon. It appears that time has now come. Now, there may still be a ramp-up period for Franklin. Just because he's warming up may not mean that he goes through team drills today. We will have to wait and see what the practice plan is. Franklin is coming off a career year in which he led the NFL in tackles, while also setting career highs in sacks and interceptions. He made his first Pro Bowl and was named a second-team All-Pro as well. Being paired with Jaylon Carlies, who brings a coverage element to the position as a former safety, and operating in Lou Anarumo's defensive back-heavy scheme, should all benefit Franklin, who could, as a result, see added opportunities near the line of scrimmage this season, which is where he's at his best.
