| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - Buffalo Bills wide receiver Terrell Owens missed practice on Wednesday with a strained hip. "[Owens] practiced on Monday and [the hip] wasn't bothering him," Bills head coach Dick Jauron said. "On Tuesday, late in the afternoon, it really started to bother him. He came in immediately and got treatment for it. Right now, it's pretty uncomfortable. We're hoping it goes away as quickly as it can." Owens' status for Sunday's game in Tennessee has yet to be determined. The off |

| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - The Buffalo Bills took wide receiver James Hardy off the reserve/physically unable to perform list on Wednesday, the team announced. The second-year player suffered an ACL tear in a loss to the New York Jets last December, and was not ready to begin the 2009 campaign because of the daily grind of the football schedule. Hardy, who was a second-round choice by Buffalo in the 2008 draft, had nine catches for 87 yards and two touchdowns in 14 games during his rookie year. In |

| Orchard Park, NY (MySportsbook) - Buffalo Bills head coach Dick Jauron announced Wednesday that quarterback Trent Edwards will return to the field when the team plays at Tennessee on Sunday. Edwards missed Buffalo's last two games with a concussion suffered in Week 6 against the Jets, and the Bills had their bye last weekend. Jauron said Edwards has earned the right to be back under center. Ryan Fitzpatrick has been filling in for Edwards, and in two starts has completed 26-of-45 passes for 240 yards, one |

BILLS: As they come off a bye that was preceded by a dispiriting home loss to the Houston Texans, the main storyline coming out of Buffalo Bills camp revolves around the quarterback position. Of course, the discussion has less to do with Dick Jauron's decision to start either Trent Edwards or Ryan Fitzpatrick, and more with a quarterback that is not currently on the Buffalo roster: Michael V |

| (MySportsbook) - In the shadow of their 11-5, AFC East-winning campaign, the Miami Dolphins' 3-4 start to the 2009 season comes off as something of a disappointment. With a win over the sinking ship that is the Buffalo Bills, and two over the New York Jets and their rookie quarterback and head coach, there isn't much for Fins fans to hang onto to suggest the arrow is pointing up for this team. Which is why Sunday's trip to meet the New England Patriots is so extraordinarily important for Tony Sparano and |

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) -The Buffalo Bills expect to promote James Hardy to their active roster because the second-year receiver has shown he's fully recovered 10 months after having left knee surgery. Barring ``something unexpected,'' coach Dick Jauron said Monday he's leaning toward promoting Hardy, who spent the first six weeks on the physically unable to perform list. The 2008 second-round draft pick out of Indiana began practicing two weeks ago. The Bills (3-5) enter their bye and have until the |

And Slaton could be there next week at Indianapolis too, because understudy Ryan Moats made the most of his opportunity with 23 carries, 126 yards and three touchdowns ag |
