Report: Former Alabama LB Reggie Ragland receives bad news about knee injury
Published:
While most expected former Alabama linebacker Reggie Ragland to be selected in the first round of the latest NFL draft, the Bills ended up landing the elite Tide defender at the top of round two. Unfortunately for Buffalo, Ragland’s debut may be pushed off for some time.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Ragland may have suffered a potentially devastating injury to his knee – although the Bills are hoping the injury is not as bad as it could be:

Ragland isn’t the Bills only defensive rookie to start his career on the injury list, as first-round pick Shaq Lawson was recently placed on the physically under to perform list (PUP) to start his NFL career.
