Buffalo Bills National Football League 2015 roster news
On Wednesday, head coach Rex Ryan and Taylor both offered hope for another scenario, a scenario in which Taylor plays on Sunday against the undefeated Bengals.
On Wednesday, wide receiver Sammy Watkins all but confirmed he would push through his calf injury in Week 6 because the Bills’ offense has been “basic” without him.
Limited participation – WR Sammy Watkins (calf), TE Charles Clay (calf), DT Marcell Dareus (hip), RB LeSean McCoy (hamstring), QB Tyrod Taylor (knee), LB Randell Johnson (hand), LT Cordy Glenn (ankle), G John Miller (groin), WR Chris Hogan (hamstring).
The 6-foot-3, 210-pounder has started in five games and played in 29 in his career, completing 96 of his 177 pass attempts for 1,042 yards, five touchdowns and 10 interceptions in addition to rushing for 274 yards on 44 attempts.
Taylor is the Bills’ second-leading rusher behind Karlos Williams, who could return this week after missing one game with a concussion. “We’re 5-0 right now”.
Johnson was a fifth-round pick (160th overall) by the Tampa Bay Rays in the 2008 National Football League (NFL) Draft.
-To make room on the 53-man roster for the Josh Johnson signing, kicker Billy Cundiff was released.
“Tyrod’s doing good”, the coach said.
“To me, it’s nearly kind of like mind games”, Bengals defensive end Wallace Gilberry said. “So do I think he could play with it?” Tyrod Taylor joined the list against Tennessee and became the first player to accomplish the feat since Randall Cunningham of the Eagles in 1987.
Williams suffered the neck injury in a loss to the New England Patriots that led to him being immobilized and taken from the field in an ambulance.
As for whether he’ll be able to be in the lineup against the Bengals, Ryan was coy.
Did not participate -WR Marcus Easley (shoulder), RB Karlos Williams (concussion), RB Cierre Wood (knee), S Aaron Williams (neck). “The knee is getting better and it feels better than it did yesterday and I’m just taking it day by day”. Taylor has also added 187 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
It was reported that Taylor could be out with an MCL sprain suffered on a horse-collar tackle in last Sunday’s game against Tennessee and the Bills are preparing to start E.J. Manuel on Sunday.
