Orchard Park, N.Y. — The Buffalo Bills' fan base held its collective breath on Wednesday afternoon when coach Doug Marrone said that rookie wide receiver Sammy Watkins had left practice early with a groin injury, putting his status for the team's Week 10 game against the Kansas City Chiefs in question. 

However, the Associated Press reports that Watkins will be able to play despite the injury.  This came after Adam Schefter of ESPN reported that Watkins received a precautionary MRI but that the team was not concerned about the severity of the injury. 

After practice, Marrone offered little in terms of a timetable for Watkins' injury other than to say he didn't have any information. 

"He could play or he could be out for two or three weeks," Bills coach Doug Marrone said. " Who knows?  I don't know.  I don't have any information." 

Watkins, who has over 100 yards receiving in back-to-back games and three touchdowns in his last two games, was listed on the injury report with a groin injury prior to the Bills' Week 8 game against the New York Jets.  But he practiced in full that week and was listed as probable on the official injury report. 

His injury is worth monitoring throughout the week, but for now, it appears Watkins and the Bills may have avoided a serious setback.
