‘ESPN reported that Watkins, who has 38 receptions for 590 yards and five touchdowns, would undergo a precautionary MRI, but the team doesn’t believe his injury is serious.’

‘”Obviously, he’s a really good player for us, so whenever you lose one of your top guys, that would be big,” center Eric Wood said.’

‘He could exercise his opt-out and seek a big-money, long-term deal in free agency with any team listening, perhaps including the Bills, or Buffalo could renegotiate a more lucrative one-year deal with him. That last scenario would give Orton flexibility for 2016 and beyond, and it would give the Bills more time to determine whether Manuel is the quarterback of the future.’

‘”I did typical stuff that we would do on Wednesday to get out there and move around and see what it feels like,” Jackson said. “It’s a process that I’ve gotta continue to see where I end up going. I was able to do some stuff today. I was able to feel confident and move around today. If things continue to progress, it’s good news.”‘

‘”He could play, or he could be out two to three weeks. Who knows?” Marrone said. “I don’t know. He didn’t finish practice. I don’t know where he’s gonna be tomorrow, I don’t know where he’s going to be.”‘

‘”It’s looking that way, Howard,” Brandon said, hinting at a blackout-free season. “We’re in very good shape for this game. The Jets and the Browns games are really just at limited status at this point. So, [I] feel very confident heading into the rest of the year that we’re in very good shape on the ticket front, so we won’t have to worry about anything on that end.”‘

‘”It went okay,” said Jackson shortly after receiving treatment post practice. “It was good action, the first time I’ve done anything on it like that being out at practice so it went well. We’ll see how it goes. The doctors are still being doctors and being cautious. So I’ve got to see how things progress throughout the week.”‘

‘”He was a leader that whole game,” said Sammy Watkins. “Throughout the whole time we were going through adversity he was in the huddle leading this team. He knew where he was going with the ball.”‘
