Cincinnati Bengals Wide Receiver Marvin Jones Suffers MCL Sprain But Could Return Soon

Following their opening field goal and ensuing kickoff, wide receiver Marvin Jones was on the return team when (from Bengals.com):

"it got cluttered and someone pushed their blocker into my (side of the) knee. It could have been worse. I thought it was. I knew it was going to be a big game with some big plays. Everything happens for a reason. I'm not mad. I'm just taking the necessary steps to get back out there."

Jones missed Tuesday's practice with "what appeared to be an MCL sprain". He was helped off the field and showed up with a brace and crutches.

As for possibly playing on the other side of the Bye Week, Lewis left that door wide open.
