When the Buffalo Bills take on the Houston Texans this weekend, they'll likely do so with rookie second-round pick Cordy Glenn re-installed at left tackle. Glenn, who has been out of the lineup since Week 4 with a high ankle sprain, was a full participant at Bills practice on Thursday, and head coach Chan Gailey sounded optimistic that Glenn will be able to make his fifth pro start of the season at Reliant Stadium. The timing of his return couldn't be better, because there's a situation brewing at right tackle that's worth monitoring, as well. Erik Pears, who did not play much in pre-season action due to what was then reported as a groin injury, did not practice today. Gailey told reporters that Pears was sent to see a hip specialist; he also indicated that the injury currently bothering Pears was the same injury as the one that hindered his training camp progress, leading to some confusion amongst reporters.
