As more and more information surfaces about the injury, some league insiders seem to believe that the injury could keep Alonso out for the entire 2014-15 regular season.
In fact, one report indicates the Bills believe Alonso has suffered a torn ACL.
Ouch.
That is a devastating blow to the Bills on the field, but more importantly, it is a blow for the game of football.
Alonso is one of the most talented young linebackers in the game and a future star.
It is disappointing that he will not have this season to continue improving as a player.
