Orchard Park, NY -- (Sports Network) - Buffalo Bills starting quarterback Trent Edwards returned to practice on Tuesday after missing a week with a thigh contusion.

The second-year quarterback missed Buffalo's 20-7 exhibition win at Indianapolis on Sunday, and backup J.P. Losman completed 13-of-19 passes for 108 yards in his absence.

The 24-year-old Edwards practiced with the first-team on Tuesday, and hinted after practice that he doesn't expect to play much, if at all, in Buffalo's preseason finale on Thursday against the Detroit Lions.

The Bills open their season on September 7 at home against the Seattle Seahawks.
