Inside The Bills

No Troup might shift things

With Torell Troup out for Sunday’s game, it could shift the assignments on Buffalo’s defensive line.

Alex Carrington could prove to be the most affected. Manning a nickel OLB pass rusher type role thus far in the preseason, he may have to play more of a down lineman role in Buffalo’s defensive line rotation. Kellen Heard, who had been playing a lot of end, figures to shift inside to nose tackle, with Carrington likely to spell him at end.

We’ll see how it all shakes out Sunday.
