The Buffalo Bills lost Sunday to a much-undisciplined New
York Jets squad. Adding to the Bills’
misery is the season-ending injury suffered by defensive lineman, Alex
Carrington.
Chris
Brown of BuffaloBills.com reports that Carrington is out for the season
with a torn quad tendon. Bills head
coach, Doug Marrone, gave the news in his Monday press conference. The injury occurred while Jets guard, Willie
Colon, was blocking Carrington.
Coach Marrone took the news especially hard as Carrington
was set to have a good year, telling reporters:
I feel bad. I’m not going to lie to you and sit here and say next man up. You have feelings and that’s what’s difficult. Here’s someone who has been very productive for the past three games and someone who is a very good football player. Here’s a player who has put in a lot of time, that’s been very consistent, a good leader for us and done everything we’ve asked him to do, and unfortunately he has an injury.Add Carrington to a huge list of injured Bills players that includes most recently C.J. Spiller (quad), Marcell Dareus (ankle), Stevie Johnson (hamstring), Leodis McKelvin (hamstring) and Mario Williams (ankle). Combine those with cornerback Ron Brooks (foot), defensive back Stephon Gilmore (wrist) and safety Jairus Byrd (foot) and the Bills can open up their own wing at Mercy Hospital.

Preeti. Thanks for reading. And yes, you are correct. Very astute in your football knowledge. Carrington was working hard and was playing well. He will make it back though. I feel Bills lost that game more than Jets won. Jets handed it to them and Bills didn't take it.
