Buffalo Bills starting defensive tackle DaQuan Jones was listed as inactive for Sunday’s AFC divisional round playoff game against the visiting Cincinnati Bengals.

Jones, 31, was limited in practice all week and listed as questionable for the game with a calf injury.

He recorded 38 tackles, two sacks and one fumble recovery in 16 games (all starts) this season.

Fellow defensive tackle Jordan Phillips is active for the game after he sat out last week’s win against the Miami Dolphins due to a shoulder injury.

In addition to Jones, the Bills listed the following players as inactive: cornerback Christian Benford, offensive lineman Ike Boettger, tight end Tommy Sweeney, linebackers Terrel Bernard and Baylon Spector and safety Jared Mayden.

As for the Bengals, right guard Alex Cappa (ankle) and left tackle Jonah Williams (dislocated kneecap) were ruled out on Friday due to their respective injuries. Max Scharping is expected to start in place of Cappa, while Jackson Carman will get the nod at left tackle.

Running back Chris Evans, cornerback Tre Flowers, defensive end Jeff Gunter, defensive tackle Jay Tufele and tight end Nick Bowers are inactive for Cincinnati.
