Apparently the Bills coaching staff decided they would be too shorthanded in the 2-4 week window in which Crowell would need to recover and created a roster spot by putting the veteran linebacker on injured reserve.
Without Crowell Buffalo has just five linebackers on the active roster and one on the practice squad in Marcus Buggs.
Crowell’s decision to have surgery this close the start of the season likely did not sit well with the Bills coaching staff, and their decision to put him on injured reserve, in what is a contract year for the linebacker, likely does not sit well with him.
what a joke. Is theo goal not to make the playoffs? There is no logic here. Maybe if they brought some legit players in to camp we wouldnt feel so thin. But were stuck with a 6'0 210 safety turned LB from sacred heart as a back up. I hate ellison and i hate this move.
