Bills | Shaq Lawson out 5-6 months

Updating a previous report, Buffalo Bills DE Shaq Lawson (shoulder) is expected to be out five to six months.

Footballguys View: This is different from earlier reports that suggested Lawson would be ready for the start of the regular season. We’re in mid-May, so five months would be sometime in October. Chances are good that the team’s 2016 first-round pick begins the regular season on the PUP list. That would force Lawson to miss the first six weeks of the year. After that, the Bills would have three weeks to decide whether or not to activate him or put him on season-ending Injured Reserve.
