The Bills haven’t done many things right lately. But they ended up making a wise move by keeping running back Marshawn Lynch around after picking running back C.J. Spiller with the ninth overall selection in the 2010 draft.
Running back Fred Jackson, expected to be the primary runner in Buffalo this year, suffered a hand injury during Friday night’s preseason opener against the Redskins. Coach Chan Gailey said Jackson will miss the rest of the preseason.
It sounds like Jackson could miss more than that.
“Fred hurt his hand and we hope to be able to get him back for the first game,” Gailey said, per Chris Brown of BuffaloBills.com. “We’re not sure.”
Complicating matters is that Lynch suffered an ankle injury, too. Gailey didn’t know the severity of it.
