Buffalo Bills: Top takeaways from first week of padded practice
Managing injuries will be key over next few weeks
This has been more of a trend for the entire NFL but the Buffalo Bills have certainly had to deal with more than their fair share of injuries to start. The most impactful injury has certainly been with cornerback Josh Norman, who suffered a hamstring injury this week.
The veteran was expected to compete for the starting cornerback job and Sean McDermott did not provide a timetable on his return Friday.
The Buffalo Bills have had a number of other players miss time like Ed Oliver missing the whole week due to a hip as well as starting fullback Patrick DiMarco sit out due to a neck injury.
