"Buffalo Bills standout defensive tackle Ed Oliver has a torn left biceps and is out indefinitely, coach Sean McDermott said Monday. Oliver, who suffered the injury in Buffalo's 40-9 victory over the Carolina Panthers, will undergo surgery, McDermott said. Oliver appeared to suffer the injury just before the two-minute warning on a 3-yard rushing play by Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard."
"As he fell to the ground on a block, Oliver flexed his left arm and then held it for a bit. He walked off the field with athletic trainers during the two-minute warning break, briefly went into medical tent and then walked to the locker room with an athletic trainer. He was quickly ruled out with the injury."
"... It's unfortunate. He's playing well when he was playing, he was impacting games at a high level. ... But like always we'll adjust, we'll move on. I feel terrible for him, but he'll be back, he'll be ready to roll whenever that time is," defensive coordinator Bobby Babich said Monday."
Ed Oliver suffered a torn left biceps and is out indefinitely after injuring the muscle in Buffalo's 40-9 win over the Carolina Panthers. The injury occurred just before the two-minute warning on a 3-yard rushing play by Chuba Hubbard; Oliver flexed his left arm after falling, walked off with trainers, visited the medical tent and then went to the locker room. Oliver will undergo surgery. The Bills have additional depth issues at defensive tackle with DaQuan Jones sidelined by a calf injury and rookie T.J. Sanders on injured reserve. Oliver recorded a sack in the game, his third in three games, and coaches said the team will adjust while he recovers.
