Bills | Four in the Mix for No. 2 Running Back

Mark Gaughan, of the Buffalo News, reports four Buffalo Bills running backs will be competing for the No. 2 running back slot and maybe two or three roster spots. Rookie RB Lionel Gates and RBs ReShard Lee, Joe Burns and Shaud Williams are in the mix. "We feel good based on what we saw this spring," general manager Tom Donahoe said of his back lineup. "Talking to Mike (Mularkey) and the coaches, we think there's going to be a lot of competition on the team for the second and third spot." "Joe Burns has the most experience of the guys who will be in camp. Shaud Williams did an outstanding job for us last year. We were impressed this spring with ReShard Lee, who we picked up from Dallas, and Lionel Gates, who we drafted in the seventh round. So we have four backs who we think will be very competitive to see who becomes Willis' backup."
