The Facts: Watkins had offseason surgery in an area near his hip, sources told ESPN's Josina Anderson.

Diehards Line: According to Anderson, Watkins had the procedure done sometime before the Super Bowl for the injury that was suffered in a Week 13 win over the Cleveland Browns. He had three catches for a season-low 11 yards in that game, but played every offensive snap. He played 72 of 80 snaps in the Bills' next contest, a Dec. 7 loss to the Denver Broncos, in which he had seven catches for 127 yards. Watkins was taken off the team's injury report the following week. It's unclear if the procedure will affect Watkins' availability for voluntary offseason workouts, which begin April 6. The Bills will hold a voluntary veteran minicamp April 28-30 because they have a new head coach, Rex Ryan. We'll follow up as further details come to light.
