Lynch Not at Pratice
Buffalo Bills running back Marshawn Lynch was not at pratice today. For news on him and the rest of the Bills squad today, we will take a look at WGR550.com:
Orchard Park, NY (WGR 550) — Bills RB Marshawn Lynch was missing from practice as the Bills begin preparations for the Jets. Dick Jauron says he was excused and expects him back tomorrow. WR Josh Reed stuck his head out of the training room door, but went back in. He had a protective boot on. G Brad Butler was watching. Aaron Schobel took a few reps with a trainer, then took his helmet off and put on a baseball cap. Schobel told me that he feels, better but not good enough. He hopes he can play Sunday, but he wasn’t overly optimistic. Jauron said with all three, they’re getting better and as they move through the week, they’ll take more of a look at them. Trent Edwards was limping after practice, but he took all his reps. Jauron says he came in for treatment Monday and Tuesday for a sore ankle. He added, “I think he’ll be fine.” John Wendling left practice today with an ankle problem.
It appears Duke Preston is the new starter at center although Jauron did not confirm that. Preston told me he got all first team reps today. He said, “It might be where it’s going” as far as him being the starter. Jauron said it’s an injury thing to Melvin Fowler, but he was going to get Preston first team reps even before Fowler’s injury. He said we’ll see after Fowler is 100-percent healthy. Fowler did play the second half in Miami and practiced fully today.
