Bills prep in the rain for Titans; Allen still in concussion protocol

ORCHARD PARK, NY (WGR 550) - As of Thursday afternoon, the forecast for Sunday in Nashville, Tennessee is calling for an 80% chance of rain, with possible thunderstorms when the Buffao Bills take on the Tennessee Titans at Nissan Stadium.

Although over 20-degrees cooler, Orchard Park was seeing the same type of conditions Thursday, which is why Bills head coach Sean McDermott decided to keep his team outside for practice.

"Yeah, it was," McDermott responded when asked if that was part of the reason the Bills worked in the rain. "We've done some work in the spring, as well, to prepare for potential weather. This was another day of it, which was good. We didn't have to fabricate wet ball drills. We had the elements of it out there today."

Among the players practicing in that inclement weather were quarterback Josh Allen, who is still in concussion protocol, and running back Devin Singletary, who has missed the last two games with a hamstring injury.

Also still in protocol are fullback Patrick DiMarco and safety Dean Marlowe. Both players were practicing on a limited basis with red non-contact jerseys.

Offensive tackle Ty Nsekhe (ankle), tight end Tyler Kroft (ankle), and Corey Thompson (ankle) all did not practice. Running back Frank Gore received a veteran rest day.
