If he misses time, who benefits most? Woods?
Woods and Chandler will likely get most of the targets, followed by Hogan/M.Williams I'd think.

Yea I mean c'mon. If Sammy doesn't play then who's gonna showboat their way to the 5?!
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — A person familiar with the diagnosis has told The Associated Press that Buffalo Bills rookie receiver Sammy Watkins' groin injury won't prevent him from playing against Kansas City on Sunday.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity because coach Doug Marrone declined to provide details of the injury after Watkins was hurt in practice on Wednesday.
The person said Watkins is fine and ready to go.
Marrone would only say that Watkins didn't finish practice and that it was too early to determine the severity of the injury.
When asked about a timetable, Marrone said the Bills' leading receiver "could play or miss 2-3 weeks, who knows."
The Bills (5-3) are coming out of their bye week and have a home matchup against the Chiefs (5-3) on Sunday.

Friday's practice is the key.

What the hell does this even mean?
He probably posted in the wrong thread.
As far as Watkins goes though, like Jack White said, tomorrow is everything.
If he doesn't practice but they say he is a true game time decision then I don't think he'll play and if even if he does I'm not sure I'd be comfortable playing him.
If he does practice tomorrow on any level then I think he will play.
I imagine a Questionable Tag is coming either way though just to keep the Chiefs guessing.

Didn't practice today.

Listed as questionable, Marrone has said nothing yet, however when they mentioned Fred, he said Fred was unlikely.
So naturally this means, Fred plays, Sammy doesnt.

"That's the coach's decision about whether I should play. It's a long season so I'm really clueless right now. I don't know," Watkins said.

Sammy Watkins not saying much. Said he underwent MRI but doesn't know results. Calls it a nagging injury.
Whenever a player says long season in a quote that is not a good sign.

Saying it's the coach's decision and he's clueless tells me that he feels good enough to be out there but that the team may hold him back to heal completely up by next Thursday's game against a division rival.
Marrone pretty much gives out the absolute bare minimum regarding injuries.
Even if Watkins does play, I'm concerned about the high potential for re-aggravating it.
