Linebacker flagged for holding in Weeks 1–5.

<p>Andreessen remains part of the Bills’ linebacker rotation as Milano sits out, offering depth in run defense and coverage support.</p><p>His performance will contribute to Buffalo’s ability to handle Saints’ rushing and receiving threats in Week 4.</p>

Andreessen delivered a steady Week 2 showing with a 72.7 PFF grade, contributing in run defense and containments, and providing reliable snaps on Buffalo’s linebacker corps as part of the unit’s overall efficiency against the Jets.

Joe Andreessen, Buffalo native and UB product, earned a spot on the Bills’ 53-man roster. His local pipeline story underscores Buffalo’s defensive depth search, presenting a late-season dynasty trap for fantasy managers who chase UDFA depth and potential special-teams value in standard IDP formats.

Andreessen, a local-to-Buffalo figure, is in the mix for LB depth. Week 3 could determine whether he makes the roster for reserve depth and special-teams value as Buffalo trims to 53.
