Re: Is Nelson going to play this week???
I wouldn't be surprised if he sees some action.
If he has mobility in the shoulder, they will probably strap him up and put some extra padding on the shoulder and just use him in limited situations. Probably splitting him out in the slot on downs when they are obviously going to pass.
I doubt that they will ask him to do any blocking at all. And may limit him only to a couple of select situations. But, I do think that, if there is any way that he can play, he probably will, even if he is limited.
I expect that Stupar will get many more snaps than Nelson, even if Nelson plays, though.Those who do not learn from the past are doomed to repeat it. And, thus it was that they surrendered their freedom; not with a bang, but without even a whimper.

Nelson sprained his right shoulder last Sunday, but is expected to play against the Saints.
"I'm looking forward to getting on the field more and do what I can to help the team," he said. "We'll miss Derek, but in this league when one guy goes down the next guy has to step in. That's what they are asking me to do, and I'm ready for the challenge."

We need him."Expect rejection, but expect more to overcome it."

"Coach Levy is one of the most inspirational people that I have ever known."
***Thurman Thomas.***
"You're not going to find a more classier, down-to-Earth person away from the field than Marv Levy. He's a guy who's pretty much made me what I am today as far as a professional player and a person."

I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

Originally posted by TigerJOddly enough, in the official Bills injury report, Nelson is listed as probable, despite Brown's doubtful assessment.
