ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. � Buffalo Bills quarterback Trent Edwards missed practice days after sustaining a concussion, making backup Ryan Fitzpatrick the likely starter at Carolina this weekend.

Though Dick Jauron didn�t rule out Edwards, the coach on Wednesday said the quarterback was recuperating at home and did not attend team meetings.
The third-year starter was knocked out while being sacked early in the second quarter of a 16-13 overtime win at the New York Jets on Sunday.
Fitzpatrick was inconsistent playing in windy conditions, going 10 of 25 for 116 yards with a touchdown and an interception. But he led the Bills on three scoring drives to overcome a 13-3 deficit.
