The Cincinnati Bengals await testing results on left tackle Jonah Williams, who went down with a scary-looking injury in Week 13 and needed a cart to leave the field.
While it sounds like the team won’t have official details until Wednesday, the early signs sound good.
Consider this comment from Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com:
“Taylor had no update on left tackle Jonah Williams’ knee injury. It’s believed, at least initially, that he didn’t tear a ligament. But even a sprain might end his season.”
The team’s website is usually right on the money with these types of things. Meaning, it’s good news Williams might miss the rest of this season, but nothing more serious.
Williams, after all, already has one serious injury on his resume after missing all of his rookie year. Adding another could be a devastating thing for his development and long-term prospects.
And it should go without saying, but losing Williams to an injury that could impact his ability to be on the field next year or continue to play at a high level would be a horrible development in front of a quarterback who just underwent reconstructive knee surgery.
