Bills' George Wilson nursing two broken ribs

"Buffalo Bills George Wilson celebrates scoring a touchdown after intercepting a pass intended for Dallas Cowboys Jason Witten in the first quarter of their NFL football game in Orchard Park, New York"

NEW YORK (Reuters) - Buffalo Bills safety George Wilson was nursing two broken ribs on Monday after an intense six-play stretch during the first quarter of Sunday's 38-17 victory over the Miami Dolphins, the Buffalo News reported.

Wilson grabbed a fumble in midair and scored a touchdown, prevented a touchdown on the next series and then returned his first kickoff of the season before being sent to hospital.

Wilson gave the Bills a 21-0 lead when he burst through the middle on a blitz and caught Dolphins quarterback John Beck's fumble before racing 20 yards for a touchdown.

On the next play from scrimmage, Wilson saved a touchdown by tackling receiver Ted Ginn Jr at the 12-yard-line after a catch, the News said on its Web site (www.buffalonews.com).

Two plays later, Wilson returned a kickoff for Buffalo (7-6) and after being brought down by Miami (0-13) hobbled off the field with two fractured ribs.
