Bills head coach Dick Jauronhttp://buffalobills.com/images/relatedicon.gif (http://buffalobills.com/news/news.jsp?news_id=5625#) for the third straight week said he was not optimistic that Marshawn Lynchhttp://buffalobills.com/images/relatedicon.gif (http://buffalobills.com/news/news.jsp?news_id=5625#) would be available to him come Sunday for Buffalo's next game in Washington. But Lynch is not letting the slightest negative creep into his head as he recovers from his high ankle sprain suffered more than two weeks ago.
Lynch was working diligently with trainers on the side of the practice field Wednesday, doing lateral stepovers, jogging laps around the field and cutting in and out of running back bags with a football under his arm.
He's even pushed it up to full speed at times to test his injured ankle and came through it with tolerable discomfort.
"It's not that much pain," said Lynch. "It's a little stiff, but other than that it's pretty good."
Buffalo's trainers have told him he's ahead of schedule.
"I heard that this injury takes a lot of time to heal," said Lynch of his high ankle sprain. "With the way I've been running on it they say it's coming back a little faster than expected. But I'm just patiently waiting until I can get back out there."
