One report has surfaced on Buffalo Bills cornerback Levi Wallace and his ankle injury. It appears to be positive in nature as well.
According to AL.com, Wallace suffered “just a sprain” in his ankle during the Bills’ Week 17 loss to the Jets.
Former Alabama DB Levi Wallace suffered an ankle injury during the Bills' win over the Jets yesterday and was carted off the field.
From what I've heard though, the injury is believed to be just a sprain.

Wallace played his college football for the University of Alabama, which connects the report’s location to the Bills’ defensive back.
The second-year pro went up and intercepted a Sam Darnold pass on Sunday. He landed awkwardly. As the report indicates, he was carted off the Bills’ sidelined after getting there with the help of team trainers.

However, while sounding positive, a sprain could still keep him out of the Bills’ Wild Card meeting with the Texans on Saturday, depending on the severity and grade of the injury.
Buffalo head coach Sean McDermott will speak to the media on Monday at 4 p.m. and will likely provide an update on Wallace’s injury, along with the ankle injury to offensive lineman Ty Nsekhe, who was also carted off the field.
