ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -- Buffalo Bills defensive tackle Marcell Dareus finished the team's season finale playing with a broken left foot.

Dareus revealed the injury by posting a picture and note on his Instagram account Monday, a day after he played a key role in a 22-17 win over the New York Jets.

The picture showed Dareus sitting on a hammock with his left foot in a protective boot. He then wrote that he broke his foot in the fourth quarter, "but I had to finish the game for my team."

Dareus' hit on Ryan Fitzpatrick on the first snap following the 2-minute warning led to the quarterback throwing his second of three interceptions in the fourth quarter. New York's loss, combined with Pittsburgh's win at Cleveland, eliminated the Jets from playoff contention.
