Bills head coach Sean McDermott said on Monday that Benjamin had avoided ligament damage. Now ESPN’s Adam Schefter adds that an MRI showed Benjamin did not injure his ACL.
MRI showed Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin did not tear his ACL, per source. Could miss a little time but not considered long-term injury.

Despite avoiding serious damage, Benjamin could miss some time for Buffalo. Benjamin was acquired in a trade with Carolina just before the deadline and has four catches for 62 yards with his new team.
