The Facts: Following up on a previous item. ... Starting TE Derek Schouman suffered a right knee injury as well late in the third quarter. Also knocked out of the game in the first half was rookie backup TE Shawn Nelson with a sprained shoulder.
Diehards Line:According to News staffer Allen Wilson, Schouman, who was carted off the field, was walking without a noticeable limp in the locker room. The initial examination on his knee did not reveal any torn ligaments. It is still possible that Schouman's knee is sprained, which would sideline him for a few weeks. ... Nelson did not show any ill effects as he left the stadium. ... With Schouman and Nelson out, the Bills had to finish the game with one tight end — Derek Fine — on the active roster. If Schouman, Nelson or both are out for a while, the Bills will likely call up Jonathan Stupar from the practice squad again.
