ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. (AP) - The Bills are going back to quarterback Trent Edwards, who will start against Tennessee this weekend after missing two games with a concussion.

Coach Dick Jauron said Wednesday that Edwards has "earned the right" to start after the offense continued to struggle under backup Ryan Fitzpatrick. The Bills (3-5) opened the season 1-4 under Edwards, before he sustained his second concussion in a
little over a year in a 16-13 overtime win at the New York Jets.

Fitzpatrick rallied the Bills to beat the Jets, and then went 1-1 in two starts. Buffalo's offense has sputtered for the past six games, and ranks among the worst in the NFL.
