Bills Today: Waiting on Watkins

1 – Waiting on Watkins
The Bills are hoping to take another step forward this week with one of their top offensive playmakers.

Sammy Watkins, sidelined since Week 2 with a foot injury, is eligible to return from the injured reserve to appear in a game this Sunday against Jacksonville.

Under the new injured reserve rules Watkins has been eligible to practice for the past two weeks, but he still wasn’t healthy enough to return to the practice field with his teammates. Rex Ryan said the Bills will be just as cautious with Watkins this week and leave his fate in the hands of the medical staff.
