    Sammy Watkins has a broken foot

    Report: Bills' Watkins suffers broken foot
    Buffalo Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins underwent surgery after breaking a small bone in his foot, the team confirmed Monday.Watkins is expected to return by the regular season, the club confirmed.The Bills' star needed a screw inserted after breaking a small bone in his foot, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.Tyler Dunne of The Buffalo News was the first to report the news. It has yet to be determined how Watkins incurred the injury.Watkins recorded 60 receptions for 1,047 yards and nine touchdowns last season, playing in 13 games. The 22-year-old is the anchor of the Bills' passing game, and was widely expected to make a major leap entering his third professional season.Watkins told fans that he's "doing great" and appreciated the support from the Bills' fan base. To all my fans I'm doing great, can't believe everything you hear. Thanks for checking on me gotta love you guys. #BUFFLOVE— King Me (@sammywatkins) May 16, 2016 Buffalo traded the ninth overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft along with its 2015 first- and fourth-round picks to the Cleveland Browns in order to move up and select Watkins fourth overall in 2014.If Watkins is out for a prolonged period, expect Robert Woods to ascend to the top of the Bills' depth chart.

      Something new for the millionaire to fling blame on others and moan about, I suppose.

        Phew, I was worried there for a minute that he wouldn't be listed on the injury report every week.

            This guy is a pussy, for real. Three first round and three fourth round picks for him and Lawson and we have nothing but an all infirmary squad.

              Honestly what the eff is the deal with the Bills' bad luck with injuries? It really does feel like a curse.

                I admit I lean that way, but at least it's early yet. We do seem to collect brittle guys. I dunno.

                  Watkins had the surgery three weeks ago, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter. The team confirmed that he is not expected to return until after training camp (but in time for the regular-season opener).

                    Add that too all the better WRs drafted after him and you come up with why I believe he's a bigger bust than Maybin.

                        If he was white and had a nickname "Poz" ... He'd be known as the Polish Windshield.

                          Really? This again? He's missed 3 games in two years and has over 2,000 yards receiving. He made those yards with Kyle Orton, EJ Manuel, and a first time starter throwing to him.

                          The Sammy hate is really crazy to me.

                              It's not the windshield that is offensive. It's the Polish. For the record. Like most Bills fans.
