NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport tweeted this morning that Sammy Watkins will be inactive for today’s matchup with the Arizona Cardinals.
This news hurts but it’s not exactly a surprise. Just yesterday Buffalo Bills head coach Rex Ryan said according to NFL.com, “Odds probably not real good that he plays. If he feels good and up to it he will. Don’t officially count him out.”
The reason why Sammy Watkins was able to play the first two weeks but isn’t able to go this week on extended rest is because the injury was aggravated when it was stepped on during a walkthrough by a teammate.
