Orchard Park, NY (Sports Network) - Buffalo Bills running back C.J. Spiller returned to practice Thursday after sitting out on Wednesday with a shoulder injury.

Spiller, who's totaled 308 rushing yards and averaged 9.3 yards per carry over the season's first three weeks, left Sunday's 24-14 victory over the Cleveland Browns in the first quarter after injuring his shoulder at the end of a 25- yard reception that was negated by a holding penalty.

He did work off to the side with the Bills' strength and conditioning staff on Wednesday, and was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Fred Jackson, who has missed the last two games due to a sprained knee, also practiced in a limited capacity for the second straight day.

He has not played since leaving the Bills' season-opening 48-28 loss at the New York Jets on Sept. 9 in the second quarter.

In other injury news, cornerback Leodis McKelvin (groin) returned to practice after sitting out Wednesday, while wide receiver Ruvell Martin (ankle) missed his second straight day.
