Easley out, Goodwin doubtful for Bills' receiving corps

BY DAN BEGNOCHE

A banged up Buffalo Bills receiving corps took a step backward this week, as two bodies turned into four and standout special teamer Marcus Easley will reportedly miss four to six weeks with a knee injury.

Easley sprained his MCL during last week's loss to the San Diego Chargers, while fellow wideout Marquise Goodwin underwent league-regulated concussion protocols following a head injury sustained during practice. The sophomore is listed as doubtful, likely leaving the team with four starters if they don't pull any reserves from the practice squad.

Here's the full injury list for the team's road game against the Houston Texans:

OUT
WR Marcus Easley (Knee)
LB Randell Johnson (Knee)

DOUBTFUL
WR Marquise Goodwin (Concussion)
G Christopher Williams (Back)

PROBABLE
QB E.J. Manuel (Abdomen)
RB C.J. Spiller (Chest)
WR Sammy Watkins (Ribs)
WR Robert Woods (Ankle)
LB Keith Rivers (Groin)
S Da'Norris Searcy (Ankle)
