Ja'Marr Chase Leaves Bengals Practice After Knee Scare

A medical evaluation followed by a team update is expected after practice.

Overview

  • Reporters at Bengals training camp said Chase landed awkwardly on a deep route and grabbed his left knee before leaving the play on Tuesday.
  • Video posted by multiple reporters showed Chase rise, walk under his own power and later stand on the sideline watching practice.
  • Team trainers checked Chase on the field then stopped attending him and he did not return to the session for the day.
  • Fellow receiver Tee Higgins removed his pads and joined Chase on the sideline, and the Bengals have not yet released an official injury diagnosis.
  • Chase is central to the offense and the team has a recent history of key injuries, so the outcome of the medical exam could affect Cincinnati’s preparations for the season.
