    The Buffalo Bills announced that kicker Rian Lindel has been placed on injured reserve. Lindell injured his shoulder on November 6. The 34-year-old Lindell was 13-of-15 on field goal attempts with 12 touchbacks on 43 kickoffs before his injury. Veteran Dave Rayner won a competition to replace Lindell on an interim basis and has connected on four of his five field goal attempts and has six touchbacks on 13 kickoffs. In nine seasons with the Bills, Lindell is 204-of-246 on field goal attempts, including 17-of-30 from beyond 50 yards. Lindell is scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent in the offseason.
