Angelo Crowell Surprise Buffalo Bills With Knee Surgery Three Days Before Season Opener

Note To Self: Don't Alert Your Team To Surgery News Just Before The Season
9/5/08
Angelo Crowell as entering his fourth year as a starting outside linebacker for the Buffalo Bills. He's been battling some knee pain and missed a few days of practice this preseason, but hadn't sat out of drills for the last week. Everything's fine, right, he'll just play through the minor injury? Well, that's what the Bills were thinking, but apparently not Crowell. The sixth year linebacker decided to inform the team just three days before the season that he's getting arthroscopic knee surgery on his left knee. That tends to not go over well.
“It came pretty much out of the blue,” head coach Dick Jauron said. “It was certainly nothing that we saw coming. But that’s kind of the way our business is."
Such a surgery only requires one to four weeks of downtime, so he'll be back very soon. Right? Wrong.
The Bills were clearly displeased with Crowell's lack of communication and surprised their outside linebacker with a season long trip to the Injured Reserve list. Once a player is placed on the list, he can't be taken off until the following season and thus can't compete in any NFL games.
Bills 1, Crowell 0. Although opposing teams may be scoring a few extra points themselves.
