‘”It’s week-to-week at this point and we’ll take it one week at a time,” McDermott said. “I know if Kyle can be out there he’ll be out there. … I have a lot of confidence in Kyle, both as a player and a person, healing, but for right now he remains week-to-week.”‘

A.J. McCarron injury update: Buffalo Bills QB getting second opinion on shoulder
‘”We’re still totally not totally (clear) on the results of the test,” McDermott said before the team’s Sunday practice. “We had some tests yesterday and we’re in the process of receiving the second opinion. There’s really no further updates at this point.”‘
Bills’ Lorenzo Alexander: Jarvis Landry should be fined for ‘dirty’ hit on teammate
‘”It was dirty. I mean, that’s a penalty,” Alexander said Sunday after the Bills practiced. “You can’t come in back into the box like that and crackback on somebody. Obviously he hit him with his shoulder but it’s a penalty and a dirty play.”‘
McCarron’s injury opens the door for Josh Allen
‘Sure, Allen will have his ups and downs, like any rookie quarterback will. Allen will have moments like the fourth down play against Carolina in the first preseason game where he looked like he had no idea what to do with the ball. He will also have plays where he steps up in the pocket in the red zone and fires a pass to throw a receiver open, like he did with Rod Streater during Friday’s game in Cleveland. That being said, the way for a young quarterback to grow is by playing on the field during the game, not by standing on the sidelines, trying to figure what poster board to hold up with the correct cartoon character to symbolize what play the starter should call in a no-huddle offense.’
Josh Allen or Nathan Peterman? Buffalo Bills have tough decision to make
‘It’s difficult to say Peterman hasn’t earned the starting job, especially when you consider the Bills’ coaching staff doesn’t seem to be in a rush to install Allen as the top guy just yet.’
Buffalo Bills taking it ‘one day at a time’ with AJ McCarron’s injury

Bills defenders call Jarvis Landry block on TD run “dirty,” “ridiculous”

Bills’ AJ McCarron getting second opinion on injured shoulder
‘McDermott said the team will “pick up where [it] left off” with its three-way quarterback competition if McCarron is healthy.

Bills say Jarvis Landry’s block was ‘dirty,’ should have been penalized
‘”Landry, he’s a good receiver, physical guy, but some of those plays that he has — Aaron Williams, Taron, I’m pretty sure he has other ones — I just think they’re dirty,” Bills linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said Sunday. “Coming from the outside of the box in, the league needs to do a better job of calling penalties on those types of plays. Obviously, defenders get called all the time on stuff that is probably less egregious than that. If we’re going to protect our football players, we need to protect everybody, not just offensive guys.’

Defensive tackle Kyle Williams injured his knee in the second quarter and was taken to the locker room. Punter Cory Carter was carted off the field with a knee injury.’
