PITTSFORD, N.Y. (AP) — Buffalo Bills rookie left tackle Ed Wang has an undisclosed injury that could require surgery and force him to miss the rest of training camp.

Coach Chan Gailey provided no details of the injury after practice Monday, except to say doctors will determine within a day whether surgery is required. Hurt a day earlier, Wang watched practice with a wrap around his lower right leg.

Selected in the fifth round out of Virginia Tech, Wang was the first player with direct Chinese ancestry drafted. He is competing for a backup spot.

Gailey said sixth-round pick Danny Batten, a linebacker, is out indefinitely after sustaining “a fairly significant injury” to his right shoulder in practice Sunday. Batten had his right arm in a sling.
