He is expected back for the regular season opener Sept. 13 against the Arizona Cardinals.
Did anyone read the article? Minor clean-out and he'll be fine...

Yeah, but teams have a tendency to minimize injuries from time to time.

And I'm of the mindset that there's no such thing as minor knee surgery when it comes to a guy who needs speed and cutting to be successful.

That being said, it may be no big deal...

pass the rum.

I'm with u man. Spiller's knee procedure isn't really a big deal... But for a guy we're relying on to be our change of pace back and have that reliability with Drew; not good.

According to Rapoport, the internal thought was for Spiller to take care of the issue now so that the running back will be ready for the start of the regular season.
I'd rather him do it now, then have to deal with the pain/soreness during/after every game...

But I have to wonder, if it was really this minor why wasn't it done a month ago? Surely this problem didn't just appear after one preseason game huh?

Hookers. Dang!

Listen, anytime (and I mean anytime) you go poking around on a football player's knee it is cause for concern. Scope or otherwise. Not good. Not good a'tall.

Exact same procedure that Reggie Bush had done every training camp

Draining excess fluid from the Knee

It seems common in those kind of speedy athletes that cut and change direction quickly.

Last year Byrd had "minor" back surgery. Now Spiller has "minor" knee surgery. No more Buffalo players... (at least one offseason)
