Buffalo Bills tight end Shawn Nelson will not play in Sunday's game against the Carolina Panthers. The Bills downgraded the rookie tight end to out on Saturday. Nelson sustained a concussion in last week's 16-13 overtime win over the New York Jets. Earlier this season, Nelson missed the Bills' loss to New Orleans because of a strained shoulder.
