PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- The NFL is investigating whether Buffalo Bills linebacker Manny Lawson has violated the league's personal conduct policy, the team has announced.
The Bills didn't provide any further details in releasing a one-sentence statement Thursday.
The announcement comes after The Buffalo News, on Tuesday, cited unnamed sources in reporting the league was investigating Lawson. Lawson on Wednesday said he was "shocked" by the report and isn't aware of what he might have done wrong.
The Bills resume practice Thursday night.
Lawson is an 11-year veteran who is projected to start in place of injured linebacker Shaq Lawson.
