Shoulder injury sidelines Bills' Davis for Bears game in Toronto

Published: Nov 05, 2010 at 10:41 AM

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Starting inside linebacker Andra Davis won't play in Buffalo's game against Chicago on Sunday in Toronto because of a nagging left shoulder injury.

Davis missed his third consecutive practice on Friday, and coach Chan Gailey said the injury could become something that may keep the veteran linebacker out for significant time. Davis is fifth on the team with 42 tackles.

Either Keith Ellison or Akin Ayodele will replace him as the Bills (0-7) meet the Bears (4-3). Listed as probable on the injury report for the Bills are Y Demetrius Bell (knee), G Cord Howard (shoulder), WR Donald Jones (knee), CB Terrence McGee (back) and G Eric Wood (knee).
