AP:

The agent for Matt Murphy (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=3756) says the offensive lineman has a partially torn left rotator cuff, but it will be another two weeks before a decision is made whether he'll have what could be season-ending surgery.
Agent Kevin Fitzpatrick told The Associated Press that there's a possibility the rotator cuff could heal enough to allow Murphy to play and delay surgery until the end of the season.
Murphy was hurt Monday during an 11-on-11 drill during a training camp session at Saint John Fisher College in suburban Rochester. Murphy had to be taken to a local hospital to be checked out.
The Bills are already down to three tackles and Pro Bowl left tackle Jason Peters (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/players/profile?playerId=6012) is holding out for a new contract.

ya, and get me a few as well im hungry.


to be honest, its not a terrible idea. rob royal is a decent blocker, imagine if he gained 50 pounds of fat and muscle. hed still be that athletic-ish guy, and we wouldnt ahve to worry about him keeping his feet in bounds.:(

Wasnt it Murphy who was getting pretty good and was about to surpass Chambers at LT? If so, that totally sucks...

I think Courtney would have a better shot. He's already at 270! And at 6'6", he has a larger frame to handle more weight. Plus, he's 27. Royal is 30 and 6'4"...

Wouldn't be a bad backup plan - but priority should be to get Peters back in!!!
