    The Buffalo Bills are looking to bounce back after two consecutive losses, with their latest defeat coming in Week 5 against the Houston Texans, who sealed a 23-20 win with a last-second field goal.

    Now, the Bills shift their focus to a struggling New York Jets team, who recently fired head coach Robert Saleh following a rough start to the season. Buffalo, still sitting atop the AFC East with a 3-2 record, is eager to get back on track against their division rivals.

    One player excited for the matchup is cornerback Rasul Douglas, who’s not only preparing to take on the Jets but is also making plans to bring a massive family contingent to the game. Douglas, who has been a solid contributor for Buffalo this season , joked with reporters about the logistics of providing tickets for all his family members.

    “Fam going to be there, usually the game where you gotta give away the most tickets,” Douglas said with a smile. “26 right now, I’m hoping that somehow everybody forgets my number and it stays at that number, but we’ll see. I’m taking donations. Anybody want to do a GoFundMe or something to help me out, I appreciate it.” Douglas quipped, drawing laughter from the room.

    On the field, Douglas has been a key part of the Bills’ defense , recording 22 tackles and a forced fumble through five games. His standout performance came in Week 4 against the Ravens, where he tallied seven tackles and forced a fumble despite Buffalo's 35-10 loss. Heading into Week 6, Douglas and the Bills will look to get back on track, with plenty of family support in the stands.
