AJ McCarron breaks collarbone in Buffalo Bills vs.

Cleveland Browns preseason match Buffalo Bills quarterback A.J. McCarron had the opportunity to claim a starting role in an audition with against the Cleveland Browns Friday night Womens Jason Croom Jersey , but the evening ended in disaster for him. The passer suffered a shoulder injury, which Vic Carucci of The Buffalo News is reporting to be a hairline collarbone fracture. John Wawrow of The Associated Press confirmed the report.McCarron and the first-string Bills offense struggled against Cleveland’s starters, and the quarterback took multiple hits from Cleveland’s defensive line. A hard hit from Myles Garrett may have triggered the injury:A broken collarbone cost Aaron Rodgers eight weeks of his season a year ago (and more, when after he came back for one game and the Packers lost, he was shut down for the rest of the year). That’s the typical time frame for an injury of this nature, meaning McCarron could be a candidate for injured reserve.With McCarron out for an indefinite amount of time, the Bills will likely need to sign another quarterback to get them through the remaining preseason games. As a veteran with an affordable contract, this injury doesn’t likely take him out of contention for a roster spot, but it drastically hurts his chances to start this season. This battle now becomes a face-off between Josh Allen and Nate Peterman.Buffalo Bills opponent fantasy preview http://www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/jordan-mills-jersey , week three: Adam Thielen the weapon to watch The Minnesota Vikings host the Buffalo Bills this week, with the former fresh off a 29-all tie against the Green Bay Packers, and the latter coming off a 31-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. The Vikings’ high-octane offense comes in fifth overall in total yards per game (411.5) and tenth overall in points per game (26.5). With the Bills’ defense allowing 359 total yards per game (18th) and 39 points per game (T-32nd), this has all the makings of a great fantasy match-up for any Viking player.While players like Dalvin Cook and Stefon Diggs should definitely have strong games, there are a few other Vikings who are even stronger plays this week against our Bills.WR Adam ThielenBuffalo cornerback Tre’Davious White often shadows a team’s top receiver, leaving the second wideout covered by an inferior player. If the Bills play zone, White stays on the left side of the field, so he will most likely match up against Diggs for the majority of the game. Enter Thielen, who operates both outside and from the slot Authentic Tremaine Edmunds Jersey , and who should be able to exploit favorable match-ups all over the field. Whether the player lined up across from him is Phillip Gaines, Lafayette Pitts, Taron Johnson, or Ryan Lewis, Thielen will be the superior player in the pairing. Unless White follows him around, expect Thielen to cause havoc in the Bills’ secondary all day.QB Kirk CousinsSpeaking of creating havoc in Buffalo’s secondary, Vikings fans would definitely like it should that happen. And if it does, it will be Cousins feeding the ball to his talented receivers that drives the offense. Minnesota looks to have made a sound investment in Cousins, as the veteran has thrown for 669 yards and 6 touchdowns through his first two games in purple. Unless the Bills can discover a consistent pass rush on Sunday Authentic Kelvin Benjamin Jersey , Cousins should have an excellent day. Yahoo! projects him to score 19.3 points this weekend, but I think he could have a better day than that. Buffalo has allowed Joe Flacco and Philip Rivers to score 21.7 and 22.7 points, respectively, so far this season.Vikings D/STJosh Allen is making his first road start against a good defense. He threw two interceptions last week at home against another good defense. LeSean McCoy may not play, and even if he does, he will be managing a painful rib injury. Kelvin Benjamin is nursing a hip injury, and he was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice. Yahoo! projects Minnesota to be the number-one scoring defense in fantasy football this week (13.5 points), and with good reason.
