Injury Update: With all the upheaval it's hard to remember that they are preparing for a football game. Today the team did practice and the same people that sat out Wednesday practices under Rex Ryan were still sitting under Anthony Lynn. Sammy Watkins, LeSean McCoy, Charles Clay, Lorenzo Alexander, Stephon Gilmore, Cordy Glenn, Kyle Williams, and Nick O'Leary all sat out. McCoy and O'Leary sat with illnesses. Lerentee McCray was limited as he continues to battle back from a concussion. Preston Brown and John Miller were also limited. Injury Page.

Lynn Presser: Since the Bills didn't have the decency of bringing Doug Whaley or Terry Pegula in front of the media, interim coach Anthony Lynn was left to be the voice of the team and be peppered with questions about the firing of his boss. Whaley will talk to the media on Monday but that is a league mandated press conference that he must do. Scott Berchtold started the press conference getting choked up when he passed condolences for the death of Bruce DeHaven before Lynn took the podium. Lynn made it official that EJ Manuel will start on Sunday as he said he lost a good friend in Rex Ryan which has made it challenging. He joked at first that Cardale Jones would play. He said they want to look at their depth since they are out of the playoffs and want to see what the other two could do. He said there is a chance all three QBs will be active but it sounds like Taylor may be inactive if they only go with two QBs. His focus is getting everyone ready to play the Jets and do their best to win the game. He said EJ was the next man up and it was our decision when asked if it was his call. He said Taylor is a young quarterback with a lot of potential and is developing. It would be interesting to have him for a full offseason. He would like to get him to throw between the hashes and that can only be drilled into him in the offseason. He said he wouldn't want to be evaluated based on one game when it comes to his chance of getting a permanent head coaching job. He likes that Tyrod is cautious because he doesn't turn the ball over and always gives them a chance to win. More on Ryan, he said he wanted to see him get more time but it is a business and ownership made that decision so they have to move forward. He says it's not up to him to decide if it's fair or not. Rex informed him of his dismissal and gave him his blessings as the interim head coach. On the controversial overtime punt and he repeatedly said he backed the head coach's call. Lynn admitted later in the presser that he wasn't in the room when the decision was made to bench Tyrod and that he was disappointed because he's a competitor and wants to play. So it turned out it wasn't an our decision but a front office and owner's decision. No responsiblities of the coaching staff are changing for the finale.

DeHaven Passes Away: Former Bills Special Teams coach Bruce DeHaven passed away yesterday at 68 years old after a long battle with cancer. DeHaven coached the Bills Special Teams during the glory years from 1987 to 1999 and then again from 2010 to 2012. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer last spring. He continued working as an advisor with the Panthers while receiving treatment in Buffalo. Marv Levy released a statement that said, "Bruce DeHaven was not only one of the premier special teams coaches the history of the NFL, he was also a premier SPECIAL PERSON. His work ethic, his love for and his dedication to the game, his caring about those players from whom he was able to bring forth their maximum talents and who revere him are all signature features which distinguished him. Beyond that, he was a wonderful husband and father possessed of a happy and upbeat nature. What a privilege it was for me and for all the members of our coaching staff to have been colleagues and friends of Bruce DeHaven." Special Teams great Steve Tasker said, "I was a better football player because Bruce DeHaven was my coach, but I was a better man because Bruce DeHaven was my friend. I will miss him very, very much."
