Marcus Easley: Released by Bills
Marcus Easley (knee) was released by the Bills on Wednesday.Easley never saw the field in 2016 as he recovered from knee surgery. The wideout had just three receptions for 71 yards and a touchdown in his six seasons with the Bills. He's now an unrestricted free agent, but it's unclear how his surgically repaired knee is doing, which could cause teams to take caution when considering signing him.

Bills' Marcus Easley: Still not ready to help cause
Coach Rex Ryan said Monday that Marcus Easley still isn't ready to practice as he recovers from knee surgery, The Buffalo News reports.Even with all the other injuries the Buffalo Bills have at receiver, Easley still wouldn't do much for the offense this season, especially with Justin Hunter starting to hit his stride. However, Easley is a special teams maven, so perhaps there's hope he can get back for the stretch run and help in that important area. The knee injury he suffered was brutal, though, so no one should be counting on anything until Easley is back practicing.

Bills' Marcus Easley: End of a long road?
Marcus Easley, who shattered his knee cap in three places during Week 16, is mostly recovered and is hoping to be on the field for at least part of training camp, BuffaloBuffalo Bills.com reports. "Based on the original prognosis they said six to nine months, so we're getting close to that point," said Easley. "So it'll be interesting to see where I stand in a couple of weeks. I feel that will determine where things go."As bad as the injury was, doctors are saying Easley's repaired knee is structurally sound. He's arguably the team's best special teams player, so if he can prove just a hint of receiving value in camp he's got a shot to land the final receiver spot. We'll note that the team will have a slew of candidates in camp, however.

"Seven to nine months," Easley said.
