Twenty-five things to know about Week 13 injuries

Kelvin Benjamin will miss his second straight game with a knee injury.

Buffalo Bills coach Sean McDermott said Friday the receiver would miss Sunday's tilt versus the New England Patriots.

The news doesn't come as a surprise after Benjamin missed practice all week. The big-bodied receiver was injured on the first drive of the team's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He's played less than five quarters since being traded from Carolina to Buffalo.

NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Benjamin has a shot to return next week.

Tyrod Taylor will try to keep pace with Tom Brady on Sunday without Benjamin, left tackle Cordy Glenn (foot, ankle) and backup running back Mike Tolbert (hamstring). Running back LeSean McCoy is dealing with knee soreness and will not practice Friday, McDermott said. However, he's expected to be good to go for Sunday, McDermott said.

Here are other injuries we're tracking on Friday:

1. Dallas Cowboys defensive back Orlando Scandrick suffered two transverse process fractures in his back and likely will miss one or more games, a source told Rapoport. Scandrick was kicked on the third play of the game Thursday against the Washington Redskins, leading to the injury. He played through it and received his diagnosis Friday.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he expects Sean Lee (hamstring) to play Week 14 against the New York Giants. Lee has missed the last three games. Jones also confirmed that the X-ray taken on Dak Prescott's right hand during Thursday's win over the Washington Redskins was negative.

2. Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy said Aaron Rodgerscould practice Saturday for the first time since being placed on injured reserve because of a broken collarbone. "We're looking tomorrow to potentially practice him in a trial return. We'll determine that tomorrow," McCarthy told reporters. Rodgers has been on IR since suffering the injury in Week 6 against the Minnesota Vikings. He is eligible to return off IR in Week 15.
