EFE OBADA NEWS

Questionable for Week 2 Obada was listed as a limited participant Friday due to a calf injury.

Impact There's a chance Obada was injured during Friday's session, as he came out of Week 1 without an injury and practiced fully all week. The Bills head into a key division showdown in pretty good injury shape, though they're always going to be slightly stronger if Obada can fill his depth role. The veteran saw 15 defensive snaps in Week 1.
