Buffalo Bills cornerback Dee Alford left Thursday night's game against the Detroit Lions with an injury to his lower leg and calf. Alford's exit left the Bills without their primary nickel cornerback, adding pressure to their already short-handed defense. Trainers worked on Alford's injury, and he was taken off the field by a trainer.
No official diagnosis or timeline for his return has been announced. Alford has a history of injuries with the Bills, including a concussion, hamstring and ankle issues. The Bills signed Alford to a three-year contract worth up to $21 million in March.
