Bills LB Terrel Bernard 'good to go' for playoffs
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (WIVB) — The Bills expect to have captain Terrel Bernard back commanding the defense for Sunday's wild-card playoff game.
The starting middle linebacker participated in Wednesday's walk-through practice after missing the regular season finale with a quadriceps muscle injury and "should be good to go," for the game against the Denver Broncos, coach Sean McDermott said. Bernard missed games earlier this season with ankle and pectoral muscle injuries.
Wide receiver Amari Cooper also returned to practice after being excused for a personal matter.
Kick returner Brandon Codrington did not practice Wednesday because of a hamstring injury, and defensive back Ja'Marcus Ingram was absent for personal reasons.
