PITTSFORD, N.Y. -- Buffalo Bills rookie quarterback EJ Manuel will start Sundays preseason opener against the Indianapolis Colts. Bills coach Doug Marrone made the announcement after the teams practice on Friday night. Kevin Kolb, Manuels competitor for Buffalos starting quarterback job, will serve as an emergency QB as he makes his way back from a left knee injury. Kolb returned to practice on Friday, but was limited and did not take part in any team drills after missing time due to a death in the family. Kolb had been excused from training camp since Monday afternoon. At Fridays practice, Kolb went to the locker room a little over an hour into the workout to receive treatment on his knee. He hurt the knee last Saturday when he tripped on a mat between Buffalos practice fields. "Not having him in the treatment, being away for a couple days because of a personal issue, I think that its a little tight," Marrone said. "He is going to dress, he is going to be there and then knock on wood if we dont need the third quarterback, if we do need one well put him in there and obviously hell just be handing the ball off and not put him in jeopardy." Manuel was the 16th overall selection in the draft. "Im very excited," Manuel said about his first exhibition start. "I think weve worked out very hard these past two weeks and I know Im going to be very excited to play against a different team. ... I think the biggest thing is to just go out and relax and play football." With Kolb unlikely to play, undrafted rookie Jeff Tuel will serve as Manuels backup against the Colts. Cornerback Leodis McKelvin (groin) and wide receiver Brad Smith (undisclosed) will not play. McKelvin, who had groin surgery in the off-season, has been dealing with soreness since the teams night practice on Monday. Marrone said that McKelvin met with Buffalos doctors Friday night for further evaluation. The status of defensive end Mario Williams (sore foot) will be determined in warmups prior to Sundays game, Marrone said. Williams participated in practice Friday, but is making his way back after missing the start of camp. Cheap Balenciaga . With the short-handed Warriors needing help from someone -- anyone -- to stop a three-game skid, ONeal returned from right knee and groin injuries that had sidelined him for four games and put up season highs with 18 points and eight rebounds.

Kerry, Just watched the shootout in the Coyotes/Leafs game and I have to ask, why was the James van Riemsdyk goal allowed to count?

After taking two big hits this week -- losing at home and dropping back-to-back games for the first time all season -- Indiana struck back by playing its most complete game of the year. Balenciaga Shoes Sale . LOUIS -- Lance Lynn was one of the more enthusiastic participants as the St. DENVER -- The 2016 NFL season starts the same way the last one ended, with Von Miller staring down Cam Newton.Denvers star linebacker got the best of Newton in Super Bowl 50, stripping both the football (twice) and the Lombardi Trophy from the Carolina quarterbacks grasp in the Broncos 24-10 win over the Panthers.The sequel wont feature Peyton Manning, who retired a month later. When longtime backup Brock Osweiler signed with Houston two days after Mannings tearful goodbye, GM John Elway embarked on a months-long search for a successor.He didnt find him in the draft, free agency or via trade, but right there on his roster in Trevor Siemian, a seventh-round draft pick in 2015 from Northwestern wholl be making his first NFL start Thursday night.Siemian has never thrown a pass as a pro. At least he wont have to face star cornerback Josh Norman, who signed with the Redskins after the Panthers rescinded their franchise tag in the offseason.Instead, Siemian will square off against two rookie cornerbacks in James Bradberry and Daryl Worley, the biggest changes on the NFC champions roster that returns 18 starters.Im not going to look at them like theyre rookies, Broncos receiver Emmanuel Sanders said. Im going to treat them like theyre Darrelle Revis and Richard Sherman.While the Panthers were restocking, the Broncos were busy rebuilding. They return just five offensive starters from the Super Bowl.The massive makeover didnt take away from their championship celebration. When they visited the White House, receiver Demaryius Thomas got to personally thank President Barack Obama for commuting his mothers drug sentence, and successfully pleaded for the release of his grandmother this summer, as well.Nobody basked in the limelight quite like Miller, who skipped the offseason program before signing a record-breaking contract. He embarked on a six-month jet-setting junket of television and dance studios.Millers torment of Newton in the Super Bowl was just the start. He made him the butt of his jokes on SNL and trolled him on Instagram, photo-shopping himself knocking another ball out of Newtons hands when the QB posted a picture of himself playing with the U.S. water polo team.Miller said this week it was all in good fun and called Newton the best player in the league.Newton insisted he took no offense and called Miller one of the great players in this NFL.There are plenty oof other story lines drawing attention as the teams meet 215 days after Super Bowl 50:RESTOCKED PANTHERS : Two factors that could help slow down the Broncos pass rush are the return to health of WR Kelvin Benjamin, who missed last season with a torn ACL, and RB Jonathan Stewart, who was held to 29 yards rushing after hurting a foot early in the Super Bowl.dddddddddddd Coach Ron Rivera said he wants to limit his 6-foot-5, 245-pound receivers snaps to 30-35 per game, down from about twice that as a rookie in 2014.REBUILT BRONCOS : Siemian isnt the only new face. The Broncos now feature a fullback along with three new linemen and two new tight ends. Elway also replaced two specialists, including punter/holder Britton Colquitt, in favor of rookies. But the Broncos return nine starters on their dazzling defense, 10 if you count CB Bradley Roby; theyre in the nickel package most of the time.REMMERS NIGHTMARE : Sure, RT Mike Remmers got beaten twice on the edge by Miller last February, resulting in a pair of strip-sacks against Newton that led to 15 points. But Rivera has staunchly defended Remmers, saying the criticism is absurd and declaring, I have absolute confidence in Mike Remmers. GM Dave Gettleman is quick to point out the Panthers are 22-4 since Remmers took over as their starting right tackle.DEMARYIUS DO-OVER : Thomas had 105 catches for 1,304 yards last year. But he only had six TDs to go with 18 drops and a forgettable Super Bowl performance. His dogged determination to have a bounce-back year was on full display this summer. D.T.s had one of the best camps Ive been around, coach Gary Kubiak said. It earned the soft-spoken Thomas offensive captain honors.DOUBLING DOWN : Denvers dazzling defense was one of the best ever, and it doesnt look like the Broncos will retreat minus Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan. We know what we can do, safety T.J. Ward said. Weve got the same defense as last year. We plan on picking up right where we left off. Were not trying to prove nothing to nobody. We did that already. And were trying to do it better this year.---AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and AP NFL Twitter feed: www.twitter.com/AP-NFL---Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: http://twitter.com/arniestapleton ' ' '
