Darian Barnes working
Injured Bills fullback Darian Barnes wasn't practicing with the running backs today, but he was in uniform and was running pretty briskly on the sidelines during the early part of the practice at Ralph Wilson Stadium. Barnes had an MRI on Monday, and we'll get a report from Dick Jauron after practice. But it's apparent his injury is not real serious. The Bills had guard Jason Whittle doing individual work with the running backs. We'll see if Whittle is a handful-of-plays option at fullback this week. Roscoe Parrish was not at practice. ... Meanwhile, Rian Lindell made a 60-yard field-goal try at the start of practice. It bounced off the back of the middle post and through.
