While the plan right now is to start Jeff Tuel Week 1against the Patriots, head coach Doug Marrone has not ruled out the possibility of EJ Manuel suiting up and starting against New England. The problem is there are too many variables that have yet to unfold for Marrone to definitively determine whether Manuel starting will be an option. However, Buffalo’s head coach has already laid out what he’ll need to see from EJ, when he’ll need to see it and how much time on the field the rookie signal caller would need to be ready for Sept. 8th.
Marrone believes it won’t take long for him evaluate whether Manuel is game ready physically.
“I think I’ll know a lot from that right on the first day when he comes back,” he said. “Meaning that when he goes out there that first day and he practices we’ll see how, for lack of a better term, how rusty he may be and if he made need more (time).”
