:sigh:

[madness]

It is unclear how the injury occurred or whether Dareus will be available for the team’s third preseason game Saturday against Jacksonville.

I don't care if he misses Saturday's game. He just better be ready for week 1.

LMFAO....

boy the Gods sure hate the Bills

[psubills62]

Ugh. Crutches are never good. Let's hope he heals fast.

[trapezeus]

i think we all knew this would happen...part of the preseason blues.

[Thurmal]

LMFAO....

boy the Gods sure hate the Bills

Hahaha...

I'm numb to it at this point. I expect everything to wrong anyway, so when something does, it's not a huge deal.

[BLeonard]

Better put him IR... Probably has incentives in his contract...

[FlyingDutchman]

If its just wrapped with no air cast or walking boot im not concerned...Probably rolled it or slight sprain...Hell ive seen enough from him, let him sit til opening day...

[mysticsoto]

Just like Nix was planning...Luck, here we come!!!

[wmoz11]

Crutches aren't necessarily much of an indicator as to the severity of the injury. It's just more necessary for 340-pound guys. Hoping not a high-ankle sprain.

The real indicator of severity is that he plays for the Bills. Two-month injury, at least.

[Buddo]

Crutches are a lot better than putting weight on an injured ankle.

Might be a blessing in disguise if he's still going to be ok for the start of the season.

Means we will not be showing much of our hand at all on D.

Probably, and hopefully, right.

Hopefully mostly precaution.

WGRZ reporting Dareus walked off field on own power after injury.

Good...Sounds like he'll be ready for the opener.

The only thing that would make this better is that if there were a couple holes in the umbrella and bird crap dripping off of it.

WGRZ reporting Dareus walked off field on own power after injury. so did jason seahorn, after completely blowing out his knee

so did jason seahorn, after completely blowing out his knee

Didn't think I'd hear a Jason Seahorn reference today...

[BillsWin]

WHAT THE ****!?

[ServoBillieves]

Oh well, we'll just plug Ruvell Martin in while Dareus is rehabbing.

[Scumbag College]

Oh well, we'll just plug Ruvell Martin in while Dareus is rehabbing.

Ruvell is too expensive of an option to replace Dareus. Ralph and Buddy are desperately hunting down Tim Anderson's and Leif Larsen's numbers as we speak.

[YardRat]

As long as he's OK for the opener.

[Billz_fan]

When you have 10 or less NFL caliber players on your roster and one gets hurt it's bound to be big news :laughter:

[kingJofNYC]

Dareus played with a bum ankle all of '10. Hope it's not the same ankle.

[bigbub2352]

Its official RW sold his soul to the devil

I heard Lauvale Sapes career might be on the rise. Someone phone Overdorf!

And he will play with a bum of a front office all of 2011.

Maybe it was reported on Buffalo Sports Daily (very reliable sources) that the foot was amputated. Should be ready to play week 1...

[methos4ever]

Sources tell News 4 Sports Dareus was kicked in the calf during the portion of the afternoon workout that was closed to the media. He left practice early and reportedly was seen in the Bills locker room after practice walking on crutches, with his lower left leg heavily taped. Sources say the injury is not believed to be too serious, but Dareus could miss some time.

Breathe People.

I blame Jauron's light practices somehow.

On their twitter feed, I heard his foot was not in attendance because it was stopped at the border for steroid possession.
