Hughes just signed with the Bills a couple weeks ago and is in line to fight for a backup role on the team's defensive line. However, in order to do so, he'll need to remain healthy. Fortunately, it's not considered to be a serious injury, but Hughes cannot afford to be sidelined for too long.

Saints' John Hughes: Sent to IR with torn biceps
The Saints placed Hughes (biceps) on injured reserve Wednesday, Josh Katzenstein of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
