D. Bell could be done for season

Bills coach Dick Jauron said Monday the team is "not optimistic" about the right knee injury suffered by left tackle Demetrius Bell in Sunday's 41-17 loss to the Tennessee Titans.

"He saw our doctors after the game and they'll see him again later on this evening ... and we'll know more then. We're not optimistic about that, though, at this point," Jauron said.

With Bell presumably out this week against Jacksonville and possibly the season, that leaves the team with just two healthy tackles, and that presumes Jonathan Scott returns to the team after missing Sunday's game due to the death of his father.

The Bills are expected to look outside the organization for help at the position.

"I believe we will bring in people and work them out," Jauron said. "Whoever is available, again, we'll bring them in and look at them. We've got a pretty good idea because of our situation through the year of who is available, but I know we'll go through the process again and be as thorough as we can be."

Rookie left guard Andy Levitre shifted over to tackle after Bell was hurt Sunday and will be a consideration to play there again, Jauron said.
