Marshawn Lynch, the Buffalo Bills' impressive rookie running back, is expected to play Sunday when Buffalo hosts the Miami Dolphins. Lynch missed the last three games with a badly sprained left ankle, but he practiced Friday for the third straight day, and coach Dick Jauron said he thinks Lynch will play. Left tackle Jason Peters also should play despite a bothersome groin injury. But defensive end Chris Kelsay will sit out a second week in a row with a left ankle injury.

Commentary: The Bills can use all the help they can get as they battle for an AFC wild-card spot.

Fantasy Football Impact: If he's healthy, Lynch, who has 751 yards and seven scores, is the man. But if he is not 100 percent, the Bills discovered a guy named Fred Jackson last week. In Buffalo's 17-16 win at Washington, Jackson ran for 82 yards on 16 carries and caught four passes for 69 yards. That's 151 yards from scrimmage.
