Buffalo Bills wide receiver Sammy Watkins says that he could do "everything" and wasn't limited by his injury on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to Tim Graham of The Buffalo News. Watkins had a groin injury he sustained in practice on Wednesday, and was ultimately a game-time decision. There was little doubt that he'd play in Sunday's game, but his workload was definitely questioned.

According to Watkins, he was prepared to do anything and wasn’t limited due to said injury. That said, he had one of his least productive games of the season, catching just four passes for 27 yards. However, he did have 10 targets, his fourth-highest of the season, so the Bills were trying to use him. It wound up being a tough game for everyone involved, as the Chiefs won, 17-13.
Fantasy Impact: Watkins leads the Bills with 42 receptions for 617 yards and five touchdowns. The fourth overall pick this year, Watkins has been solid and should be just as good going forward. His groin injury was a minor concern and fantasy owners should be worrying more about Buffalo’s upcoming opponents than Watkins’ injury.
