Bills place Easley and Batten on IR

Football Betting Lines

08/22/2010 - Pittsford, NY (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Two members of Buffalo's 2010 draft class will not see the field this season, as the club placed wide receiver Marcus Easley and linebacker Danny Batten on injured reserve late Sunday.

"Obviously it's not what we wanted, but it's just something that had to be done looking at the long term prognosis for both of them," Bills head coach Chan Gailey said.

Easley was selected in the fourth round and Batten the sixth. Both players suffered significant injures on August 2.

Batten sustained a severe shoulder injury that had his arm in a sling for two weeks. It is uncertain if he will have surgery.

Easley suffered a knee injury that required surgery this past week. Gailey never provided a timetable on a possible return for Easley following the surgery.

"They were both going to miss a significant part of (the season)," Gailey said. "We just couldn't see time-wise that it was going to benefit them to try to make it back this year."

Kurt Warner to start, Matt Leinart to watch

Despite the debate that's swirling , Kurt Warner will remain the starting quarterback for the Arizona Cardinals, coach Dennis Green said today. The Arizona Cardinals are the +7 point underdog at online sportsbook MySportsbook.com for this Sunday's game.

Green's comment came in a statement released by the team following an ESPN report that Green decided that rookie Matt Leinart would replace Warner as starter for Sunday's game at Atlanta.

"Generally talking about the starting lineup is not something we do," Green told the AP. "However, given the speculation that was out there we want to make it clear. We're disappointed after last week, but we still expect to be a playoff football team and we fully expect Kurt Warner to be the quarterback that leads us. That has not changed."
