Two Bills Drive

‘Ostroski hasn’t participated in live drills throughout the preseason because of a knee condition, and he doesn’t appear close to doing so.’

‘Left tackle Jonas Jennings made a surprise return to practice Monday and participated in most team and individual drills. He’s hopeful he can play in the Bills’ preseason finale Thursday at Detroit.’

‘The 26-year-old native of Daytona Beach, Fla., is trying to make an NFL roster for the fourth time, and if he doesn’t survive the Bills’ final cut Sunday, he knows it might be time to move on with his life.’

‘The Bills have installed a 45-yard tract of the new AstroPlay surface on their practice field behind the fieldhouse on One Bills Drive, and they tested it for the first time Monday.’

‘"Everything’s limited right now, you’ve got to crawl before you walk, but everything I am doing, I’m doing well," Jennings said. "It’s enough to get it done to build up to the opener."’

Photo subjects include Bledsoe, Henry, Robertson, Bannan, Tillman and Charlie Johnson.

Jonas Jennings returned to practice on Monday. Gregg Williams: "It was nice to see Jonas (practicing) today. He was bouncing around pretty good. We'll take him day-by-day, similar to what we did with Ruben, and see how he is at the end of the week."

The Bills have only a dozen players on their roster whose resumes include more than five years of NFL experience. There are roughly three times that many with two seasons or less in the league.

I was thrilled to watch Jim and the team march through the playoffs and on to the national sports spotlight of four Super Bowls! But to me, his commitment to giving back to the community that supported him for so many years is definitely his most "Super" effort!

‘With Jonas Jennings nursing a sprained ankle that may be more serious than the Bills are letting on, Price could find himself in the starting lineup at left tackle when the regular season begins 13 days from now.’

‘But the Bills don’t look like a playoff team. They’re a work in progress, young and unproven at too many key positions. They will have ups and downs. They will excite you one moment and make you tear your hair out the next.’

‘Penalties, penalties, penalties.’

‘"It felt good to be out there again," Ahanotu said. "It’s been a long time. This is the first time that I’ve had pads on since the Super Bowl. I felt all right. It will get better next week."’

‘From the time Jim Kelly was confirmed as one of the football immortals, Buffalo has gone Hall of Fame nutsy.’

‘"I root for the Buffalo Bills because they are New York’s true team," Pataki said during his visit. "But I’ll root for the Jets except when they play the Bills."’
