Buffalo Bills quarterback EJ Manuel was added to the injury report on Wednesday with an abdominal issue. Manuel still got in a full practice and isn't expected to miss Sunday's Week 4 game against the Houston Texans.
EJ Manuel added to injury report Wednesday, has middling fantasy value for Week 4
The Bills’ starting quarterback is a midweek addition to the injury report. We break down the fantasy implications.


The injury is new and unrelated to Manuel’s previous knee issues. He missed six games in 2013 with three separate knee injuries. Manuel has been playing a game-manager role in Buffalo’s 2-1 start, completing 63.2 percent of his passes for 613 yards, three touchdowns, one interception and 7.0 yards per attempt.
Fantasy impact: The injury doesn't sound serious, but it's notable for a player with Manuel's injury history. He still struggles with accuracy and isn't consistent enough to be a viable fantasy play in 12-team leagues. The Bills will continue to lean on Fred Jackson and C.J. Spiller and try to keep their surprising run going against the Texans defense. Manuel is only a desperate option in two-quarterback leagues.
