More (sort of) on Vilma

Still nothing definitive on Jonathan Vilma in terms of how serious his knee injury. But take it to the bank he’s not playing Sunday and that rookie David Harris will get the start and call signals.
The best Eric Mangini would provide was that Vilma would miss practice again today. Vilma, of course, was nowhere to be found in the locker room. Mangini wouldn’t even clue us in as to whether it’s Vilma’s left or right knee. That information won’t make a difference if Vilma misses the rest of the season.
Rich Cimini of the The Daily News reported last night that Vilma’s knee injury was “significant’’ and he faced season-ending knee surgery. Again, Mangini would not address that speculation.
“It’s something that we’re just going to have to see,’’ Mangini said. “I know today he won’t be able to (practice) but just really have to see.
“I’m going to look at the information. We have to get more information.’’
Like I said yesterday, don’t turn blue holding your breath waiting for this. But do take it to the bank that Vilma’s not playing Sunday.

[...] Gross has somewhat of a Vilma update. [...]
again, another player gets hurt and the fans, who are the reason that professional sports can even exist have no clue as to what to expect of probably our best defensive player. This is such crap as whether or not Vilma will play will effect the outcome of the Bills game (loss). It is funny how this game has become so un-fun, between the analyzing the QB situation, to the way we get injury news, etc. It must be tough being a reporter andf actually having to cover this team.
