Bills' Mecole Hardman: Not practicing Tuesday
Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that Mecole Hardman (calf) won't participate in Tuesday's walk-through practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.With no on-field activity so far this week, Hardman's availability for Thursday's game against the Texans would appear to be in jeopardy.
