The Facts: Price was ruled out for the season by the Bills Friday due to a disc problem in his neck that will require surgery. HC Dick Jauron told reporters that Price was scheduled to have the operation on Friday and he would be placed on the injured reserve list next week.

Diehards Line:The injury came as a surprise to the Bills. Jauron said he believed that the neck problem was a cumulative injury and not the result of any specific play in a recent game. ... Meanwhile, Jauron said Josh Reed and Roscoe Parrish will share duty as the starter opposite Lee Evans in the two-receiver set. Sam Aiken also likely will see more time on the field at receiver.
