ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) Bills receiver Roscoe Parrish is out indefinitely after hurting his left ankle in a 38-35 win over the Oakland Raiders on Sunday.

The Bills also lost starting right guard Kraig Urbik, who will miss a few weeks with a left knee injury, coach Chan Gailey said after the game.
Gailey wouldn't provide any further details, except to say Parrish's injury was still being evaluated and that he would be out for "a while."

Parrish was carted off from the sideline after getting hurt in the second quarter while blocking on teammate Stevie Johnson's 19-yard catch. He lay on the Bills sideline for several minutes, where he was treated by team trainers, before being carted to the locker room.

It's the latest setback for the seven-year veteran, who missed the second half of last season with a broken wrist.

Urbik did not return after he was hurt later in the same series.

Raiders cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke limped off the field after hurting his left knee later on that drive. After being examined on the sideline, he was escorted by a trainer to the locker room for tests.

Coach Hue Jackson provided no injury updates after the game.
