Bills place Easley and Batten on IR

Football Betting Lines

08/22/2010 - Pittsford, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two members of Buffalo's 2010 draft class will not see the field this season, as the club placed wide receiver Marcus Easley and linebacker Danny Batten on injured reserve late Sunday.

"Obviously it's not what we wanted, but it's just something that had to be done looking at the long term prognosis for both of them," Bills head coach Chan Gailey said.

Easley was selected in the fourth round and Batten the sixth. Both players suffered significant injures on August 2.

Batten sustained a severe shoulder injury that had his arm in a sling for two weeks. It is uncertain if he will have surgery.

Easley suffered a knee injury that required surgery this past week. Gailey never provided a timetable on a possible return for Easley following the surgery.

"They were both going to miss a significant part of (the season)," Gailey said. "We just couldn't see time-wise that it was going to benefit them to try to make it back this year."
