Bills WR Johnson misses practice

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) — Buffalo Bills receiver Stevie Johnson missed practice Thursday because of a sore groin that has been bothering him for about a month.

Coach Chan Gailey said Johnson was just given the day off, and fully anticipates Johnson to play Sunday when the Bills (1-0) play host to the Oakland Raiders (1-0).

Johnson appeared to tweak the injury in a position drill on Wednesday during the portion that reporters were able to watch. He took a few repetitions off before returning.

The four-year veteran led the Bills with 82 catches last season, and had four receptions for 66 yards and a touchdown in Buffalo’s season-opening 41-7 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday.

Defensive lineman Torell Troup (back) and linebacker Arthur Moats (knee) were both limited again on Thursday.
