Melina Vastola / USA Today
Things have reportedly gone from bad to worse for Buffalo Bills linebacker Kiko Alonso.
Bills LB Kiko Alonso tore his ACL and is expected to miss season, per source. It’s considered a seven- to nine-month recovery. Blow for BUF.

Without Alonso the Bills would likely have to thrust third-round pick Preston Brown into a starting role at weakside linebacker.
Nigel Bradham also made strides last year and could see more starts in the linebacker corps, but make no mistake about it, the loss of Alonso will be challenging for the Bills to overcome.
