The news on Sammy Watkins’s hip surgery isn’t great, but it could be worse.

Watkins will miss the Bills’ Organized Team Activities, according to Vic Carucci of the Buffalo News. But Watkins will be able to do some light workouts in the team’s offseason program, and will be ready for training camp.

The Bills’ first-round draft pick last year (and this year, as the Bills used this year’s first-round pick to move up in last year’s draft), Watkins had a slight hip labral tear and underwent surgery a couple of months ago.

Watkins started all 16 games for the Bills as a rookie and caught 65 passes for 982 yards and six touchdowns. The Bills will be counting on him to be at least that productive in his second season, and will need him to get healthy soon.
