Chan Gailey said on Monday that Fred Jackson will practice at some points this week. He did not discuss the possibility of Jackson playing in Week 4, but noted his recovery has been “amazing” so far.

Fantasy Impact: The Bills can’t hold down a No. 1 running back, as C.J. Spiller is injured as well now. Jackson’s progress has been impressive, and even though it might be a long shot for him to play this week against the Patriots, he appears to be closing in on returning to action. Tashard Choice looked good in his playing time after Spiller left the game, and Gailey noted his ability as well. There’s not telling what the Bills will do when everyone is healthy, but Jackson and Spiller are clearly going to see the majority of the workload.
