Leodis feeling better

Leodis McKelvin is not fully participating in practice here on Wednesday after exiting last Sunday’s game with a tight back. But three days removed from that game he’s feeling a lot better.

“I feel a whole lot better than I did on Sunday when I woke up,” said McKelvin prior to Wednesday’s practice. ”I feel a whole lot better, a whole lot looser and I can move around a whole lot better.”

“We’re not going to try to overextend him,” said Chan Gailey. ”So he’s not going to take all his reps. He’ll try to get out and stretch it out and do some things, but he’s not going to have a full practice.”

McKelvin would not confirm whether he had back spasms on Sunday. He pulled up on his first punt return and did not re-enter the game against Jacksonville.

To guard against getting shorthanded at cornerback this Sunday, with McKelvin a question mark right now and Aaron Williams still trying to work his way back from a knee injury the Bills promoted T.J. Heath from the practice squad.

A. Williams to practice

Bills CB Aaron Williams, who has been out since Week 9 with a knee injury, will practice Wednesday.

That according to head coach Chan Gailey.

“He’s going to try to do some things today,” Gailey said. ”He’s going to be out there for the majority of practice and we’ll see how far he can go.”

Williams has been practicing with the team for each of the past two weeks, but is not yet 100 percent. Whether he can get there sounds uncertain, and may be why the Bills chose to add another cornerback to the roster in practice squad CB T.J. Heath.
