Bills QB Josh Allen received a second opinion on his sprained elbow from Dr. James Andrews, and he doesn't need surgery.

The tweet went on to say that while he doesn't need surgery, the expectation as of now is Allen will miss at least two or three games, then be week-to-week from there, source said. Peterman or Anderson could start in Week 7 against the Bills.

Eagles veteran wide receiver Mike Wallace is on injured reserve after fracturing his fibula in Week 2, but the Eagles are still holding out hope Wallace will be able to return this season.

"Hopefully, Mike's progressing and we get a chance to get him back here this season," Groh said.

Wallace wouldn't be allowed to return until Week 11 against the Saints, which could force the Eagles to make a decision sooner. Both Mack Hollins and Richard Rodgers, placed on IR before the start of the season, would be eligible to return before Wallace. And the team is allowed to bring back just two players from IR each season.

So if they get to a point when Hollins and Rodgers could return, the Eagles might have to try to determine if Wallace will be able to come back in Week 11. If he is, it would obviously be worth holding a spot for him. Without Wallace, the Eagles have lacked a consistent deep threat. The story added despite a big catch from Gibson, the Birds don't seem to want to expand his role.

Bills rookie QB Josh Allen will not start this Sunday and there is concern he will miss weeks per sources.

On Monday when we reported on this, the team had not committed to Peterman as the starter. The team signed Anderson last week, so this obviously leaves the door open to move away from the struggling Peterman and instead go with the veteran Anderson.

Bills rookie quarterback Josh Allen left Sunday’s loss to the Texans with a right elbow injury and coach Sean McDermott provided an update on Allen’s condition when he met with the media on Monday.

McDermott described Allen’s outlook as “week to week.”

HC Sean McDermott said "we'll see" and he'll know more Tuesday as far as whether or not Allen can play in Week 7. Peterman may not be a lock to start if Allen can't go, as the team signed the veteran Anderson last week.

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen exited the game with a right arm injury against the Houston Texans.

Allen was sandwiched between two Houston defenders after competing a 39-yard pass to Kelvin Benjamin in the third quarter. Bills coach Sean McDermott was visibly upset that a late hit penalty wasn't called.

Amari Cooper headed to the locker room during Sunday's game against the Seahawks after absorbing a helmet-to-helmet hit, Vic Tafur of The Athletic reports.

Prior to exiting the game, Cooper did not catch a pass. A story broke before the start of the game that the Raiders would possibly be open to trading Cooper.
