Head coach Chan Gailey confirmed that Aaron Williams will start at LCB in place of Terrence McGee who went on injured reserve Tuesday. The question is will he move into the slot just as McGee did when Buffalo goes to their nickel package?
When Terrence McGee was out of the lineup the first three games of the season, Aaron Williams filled his role in the slot on nickel packages, while Leodis McKelvin manned the LCB position. Now with McKelvin a bit lower on the depth chart Williams will start in McGee’s place at LCB. But will he move into the slot in nickel situations again?
Even Williams isn’t sure.
“I honestly don’t know,” Williams told Buffalobills.com. ”At the same time at the very beginning of the season I was Terrence’s backup. The first few games when I was playing when he was hurt I was in the slot.”
If called upon to play in the slot, Williams insists he’s ready.
“I’m not rusty at all being at nickel,” he said. ”I got some playing time at corner. If I have to do both that’s fine. I love doing it. I’ve played multiple positions since high school.”
In all likelihood Williams starts at LCB and in nickel situations he’ll move into the slot and then either McKelvin or fellow rookie Justin Rogers comes on to play the boundary corner position.

Entering the bye week several players were asked for their assessment of where the team sits and if they’re happy with a 4-2 record. Most were far from satisfied.
“4-2 is not bad, but we want those wins,” said Terrence McGee. ”To me it’s still early in the season. We’ve still got 10 games left so there’s nothing about 4-2 to get too happy about.”
“I can’t say I’m happy being 4-2 because we had a game today we could’ve won and been 5-1,” said Nick Barnett. ”It’s not the worst record you can have for right now at 4-2. We still have a lot of games ahead of us and a lot of opportunities to win games, 10 of them. So to let this get us out of our groove or our momentum we’re not going to do that. We’ve got some good people in this locker room and we’ll grow from this. Is 4-2 a good place to be going into the bye week? Yeah, but we feel like we could’ve been 5-1.”

Terrence McGee has missed the first four games of the season after going down with a hamstring injury on the first defensive play from scrimmage in Week 1. But things are looking up for his return to the lineup.
“It’ll be close,” said Gailey. “It’ll be real close. He’s had two good days. The thing is you can’t rush those things. If you rush them you’re playing with fire. We don’t want to rush it, but at the same time after tomorrow’s practice if we feel he’s ready we may (have him play).”
McGee was listed as a full participant on Wednesday and Thursday. His return to the lineup is still iffy, but he’s a virtual certainty to be back in the fold Week 6 against the Giants.

One player returning from injury in practice is Terrence McGee.
McGee has a chance to play, but will probably be limited his first day back in a month. We’ll get his official level of participation later this afternoon.
