Bills head coach Doug Marrone said EJ Manuel is ahead of schedule in his recovery from his sprained LCL suffered in the Week 5 loss at Cleveland.

“The report was encouraging,” said Marrone. “I don’t have a timeline from the doctor yet, but I was encouraged meeting with him and talking to him.”

Marrone said Manuel will begin his rehab this week now that the injured knee has “calmed down” as Marrone put it.

The Bills head coach said initially on the heels of the Cleveland game that Manuel would be out at least a few weeks.
