ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -Bills backup quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick will make his second straight start this weekend while Trent Edwards continues to recover from a concussion.
Coach Dick Jauron made the announcement on Monday, a day after Fitzpatrick helped the Bills (3-4) to their second straight victory, 20-9 at Carolina. Buffalo hosts Houston (4-3) on Sunday before entering its bye week.
Edwards was knocked out in the Buffalo's 16-13 victory over the New York Jets on Oct. 18. Jauron sidestepped a question about whether Edwards will regain the starting job once he's fully recovered.
The coach said Edwards is improving and has been cleared to work out.
