correllium Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 BEREA, Ohio -- Pro Bowl center LeCharles Bentley sustained an injury to his left knee during the Browns' first 11-on-11 drill of training camp on Thursday.Bentley got tangled in a pile of players as he was blocking on a running play for Reuben Droughns. Bentley screamed, "No," before remaining on his knees as the Browns moved their scrimmage up the field so trainers could attend to the 6-foot-2, 309-pound player. He stayed on the ground in a seated position for several minutes before Cleveland's medical staff immobilized his left knee and carted him to the locker room. Bentley covered his face with a towel on the short drive to the field house as Browns players and fans looked on in shock. The extent of Bentley's injury is not yet known. Bentley, a five-year veteran, signed as a free agent with the Browns in March. Source: ESPN EDIT: UPDATE 10:15AM: After being taken from the field, Bentley was fitted with an air cast on his left leg, which provides an initial indication that the problem may be with his left fibula rather than the knee.All of this is based on observation from the sidelines. There has been no word from the team as of yet. Source: Scout.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I am Reid Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Ummmm ****. Im not sure how much of a impact he would have been, but it wouldnt hurt. Its good if its only a broken bone, instead of his knee. If thats the case, he could probably be able to play at the start of the season, only if its a regular break, not some hairline fracture or something. I just hope its not a knee. This same kind of thing happened the jamir miller after his probowl season, but it was like the first down of the first preseason game or something dumb like that. Im pretty sure they went to the playoffs the next year though, and things are looking good this year too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am Reid Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Well, nevermind. He's done, out for the season, so much for that. Well at least we still got our 3rd year rookie to look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
