Bills NT Torell Troup is having surgery on his ailing back this Friday.

That straight from the player’s twitter account Monday afternoon.

TorellTroup Looks like i will be having my surgery friday. Got some great news from the doctor today.

TorellTroup I’m ready to get this over so i can be the player i was in the preseason. Will feel good to not be in pain everyday

Troup appeared in just six games in 2011 after a promising start in training camp due to his lower back issues that cropped up in the last preseason game and never let up. He’ll have a spinal fracture repaired and disc clean up performed. Rehab should take about three months according to Troup.
