Parrish out 4-6 weeks with thumb injury - Buffalo Bills
Parrish out 4-6 weeks with thumb injury

If Bills fans still haven’t come back down to earth following the team’s exciting 3-0 start, the loss of Roscoe Parrish for up to a month and a half with a thumb injury might dampen those spirits.
Parrish suffered the injury in last week’s game and had surgery on the thumb Tuesday, which could keep him out until the Bills first meeting with the Patriots on Nov. 9. There is the benefit of a bye week in Week 6 for Parrish to recover.
“Roscoe we anticipate will be out for a good while,” said head coach **** Jauron. “We’re hoping four to six weeks in that range. That obviously sets us back a little bit. But it’s probably as good as the news could be when we first heard about the injury.”
The injury involves a ligament in his thumb, which is what required surgical repair.
