Signs point to David Nelson being out a long while
Buffalo Bills fans are holding their breath about running back Fred Jackson's injury.

Wide receiver David Nelson's injury might hurt the team more.

Both players suffered right knee injuries in a 48-28 loss to the New York Jets at the Meadowlands. Each walked to the locker room under his own power, but Nelson needed a golf cart to transport him from the locker room to the team bus.

"Fred doesn't look as bad as David," Bills coach Chan Gailey said. "We don't know how bad David is, but it doesn't look good right now."
