Things continue to stay the same for Sammy Watkins.
The Buffalo Bills wide receiver left the team’s practice on Sunday to be examined by a trainer after coming up hobbled following a route he ran.

Watkins later returned to the field but was not participating in 11-on-11 drills.
A former No. 4 overall pick, Watkins is talented but has been hampered by foot and other injuries throughout his career. He played in 13 games in 2015 and just 8 last season. He underwent left foot surgery in January.
The Bills declined to pick up Watkins’ fifth-year option because they’ve been concerned about his injury history.
