"Robert Woods not taking snaps with the Buffalo Bills' first-team offense turned out to be one of the more surprising aspects of Sunday's Hall of Fame Game. Three days after Woods exclusively played with the backups, coach Doug Marrone pulled aside the second-year receiver to discuss the matter.

"We know Robert can play three positions for us. We're just trying to figure out what's the best combination that we have out there," Marrone said Wednesday, per ESPN.com's Mike Rodak. "When Robert first came to camp, he didn't do that.

Please no. EJ with a chip on his shoulder means he goes on IR.

The only chips that KneeJ is likely to have are bone chips in his knees.

I don't really see the big deal with Woods taking second team reps. Considering Sammy Watkins and Mike Williams are both new to the team, it would seem important that they get more reps with EJ to work on chemistry/timing.

Either way, it sounds like Woods responded well and had a really good practice after his talk with Marrone.

I honestly feel like Marrone isn't going to be as nice to EJ this year. I'm not saying that he'd go as far as benching him but I can see him barking at him all game if he continues to flounder.
