Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
The Bills failed to list defensive end Mario Williams on the injury report while being treated for a sprained wrist. Williams commented publicly on October 3 prior to Week 5 games about how the wrist had been bothering him and limiting his effectiveness. Although Williams fully participated in practices and games after sustaining the injury, he should have been listed on the report with a wrist injury and fully participating in practice. Williams has been listed on the Bills' injury report with a wrist injury the past two weeks. The Redskins did not properly update for the televising network and news media quarterback Robert Griffin's status during the October 7 game versus Atlanta. In reviewing the matter, the appropriate medical care for Griffin was never in question. The Redskins' medical staff acted appropriately and with great care for Griffin's well-being.
