On a rainy and cool day in Rochester, the Buffalo Bills are back in action at St. John Fisher College for their eighth training camp practice of the 2014 season. This practice session was originally scheduled for this morning, but was moved to this evening thanks to that aforementioned rain.
As usual, we'll be updating this thread with observations from Pittsford as the evening unfolds. The Bills are in pads and have a two-minute drill session planned, so rain or not, things could get interesting tonight.
Scott Chandler is not expected to practice tonight. No update on when he will return

Marrone on reports of T Cordy Glenn returning for preseason: "I haven't been told that"
— Buffalo Bills (@buffalobills) July 28, 2014
Marrone: #Bills may use OL to fill in at TE in some formations due to injuries (Moeaki, Chandler). G Kraig Urbik caught a TD yesterday.

I do not see Aaron Williams on the field at the start of #Bills practice tonight
— Joe Buscaglia (@JoeBuscaglia) July 28, 2014
In addition to A Williams, Kenny Ladler, Tony Moeaki, Scott Chandler and Chris Gragg aren't on the field practicing tonight. #Bills

Aaron Williams is sick and will not be practicing tonight. #Bills

Brandon Spikes just intercepted EJ Manuel in 7-on-7. Like Manuel never saw him. Spikes faked a pitch to Corey Graham and ran it in for 6.
— Matthew Fairburn (@MatthewFairburn) July 28, 2014
Another drop for T.J. Graham. Recurring theme for his camp. Time may be running out for him.
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
EJ Manuel connects on his first deep pass of the night. Little over 20 yards to Mike Williams.
— Matthew Fairburn (@MatthewFairburn) July 28, 2014
Manuel rebounded in his second set of reps in 3rd down 7v7s. Hit Lee Smith in stride on post but Smith dropped it.
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
Might have just seen one of Manuel's best third down plays in camp. Stared down A gap blitzes and dropped pass into Williams' hands alon ...
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
Sammy Watkins has been on the sidelines for most of 11-on-11 portion of practice. Mike Williams has four targets to Woods' two by my count.

Fight breaks out between Bryan Johnson and Macky MacPherson. Johnson throws at least four punches to the midsection. #Bills

Doug Marrone meeting with Peoper Johnson and Pat Morris after another scuffle after play. Marrone not happy
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
Marrone just called the OL and DL together. He is not happy. Macky MacPherson and two DL latest to scuffle
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
Marrone does NOT like when practice breaks down like that. Called both the offensive and defensive line over and talking to them now. #Bills
— Joe Buscaglia (@JoeBuscaglia) July 28, 2014
Doug Marrone is having a talk with the offensive and defensive lines now. Things are getting chippy. Coach has the boys laughing now.
— Matthew Fairburn (@MatthewFairburn) July 28, 2014
Some laughs as Marrone breaks up the huddle. Eric Wood steps in as Marrone leaves, tells groups to cool off
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
With injuries, Bills are really experimenting at TE. Guard Kraig Urbik and FB Evan Rodriguez the latest grouping. Urbik false starts
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 28, 2014
Looks like Cyrus Kouandjio was getting some reps with the #Bills' third-team offense in that last series of 11-on-11's.
— Matthew Fairburn (@MatthewFairburn) July 28, 2014
#Bills were starting to pick up the pace on offense, and EJ Manuel forced one to Robert Woods into double coverage. Ron Brooks w/ an INT.
— Matthew Fairburn (@MatthewFairburn) July 28, 2014
Thad Lewis' 2 min drill against mismatched 1st team D ended with 2 sacks in first 3 plays, but kept going. Later big Graham gain
— Mike Rodak (@mikerodak) July 29, 2014
Entertaining two-minute drill tonight. Ron Brooks, who has had a difficult first week, picks up a leaping INT to stop first-team offense.
— Mark Ludwiczak (@MarkLud12) July 29, 2014
Shorter practice tonight. 2 hours, 6 minutes
