Losman's job in jeopardy


Predictably, speculation mounted in Buffalo on Monday that injured quarterback J.P. Losman might not regain his starting job after rookie Trent Edwards led the team to victory in his first NFL start in Week 4. When asked by the Rochester Democrat & Chronicle if he feared for his job, Losman replied, "In this league, of course… It's every player's fear to get injured and to have some kind of controversy over something like that. I don't think anyone's job on this team is secure; you have to perform week in and week out." Head coach Dick Jauron basically confirmed what Losman said, walking the fence and implying that the best player will get to play. No. 1 receiver Lee Evans backed Losman, however, and it seems likely that Losman will be able to regain his job once he returns from his sprained MCL, likely after the Bills' Week 6 bye. How long he holds the job after that, however, remains to be seen.
