Sammy Watkins has a hip injury. I asked Marrone if he could miss practice time this week. "I have no idea," he said.

With a 7-5 record the Bills are still alive for a playoff and will need the No. 4 overall pick in the draft to keep them in the thick of the postseason chase in December, but it sounds like Watkins should be able to play this weekend after playing through the injury on Sunday.

More information will be released on Wednesday when the injury report is released so monitoring Watkins and how much he is able to practice this week will be telling for the Bills and for fantasy football owners who could be beginning the fantasy football playoffs this weekend and want the rookie wideout available.

Watkins had 51 receptions for 695 yards and five touchdowns this season.
