Leonhard Practices, Edwards Likely Unable to go as Backup

Posted by Matt Loede on November 2nd, 2007 filed in News

As the Bills continue to get ready for the Bengals on Sunday, the team got some more good news Sunday with a couple of players that are coming back ready to go.  One player that was on the field Friday was safety Jim Leonhard who was able to go with a sore calf muscle.  He will likely be sharing time with George Wilson in the Bills backfield of the defense.  Defensive end Ryan Denney practiced fully Friday. The Bills are being careful with his return from a broken foot, and while he looked good, there is no for sure that he will go Sunday.  On the QB front, it looks like Trent Edwards will not be able to go as a backup on Sunday, as he did not practice Friday with his sprained right wrist.  Gabril Hamdan will be No. 2 and running back Fred Jackson would be the emergency No. 3.
