More linebacker problems
Ahmad Brooks and Caleb Miller, the Bengals' top two middle linebackers this season, were both listed as doubtful this afternoon when the Bengals released their injury report.
Miller (back) and Brooks (groin) did not practice today.
Left guard Stacy Andrews (shoulder) is questionable.
Out are tailback Rudi Johnson (hamstring), wide receiver Tab Perry (hamstring), safety Ethan Kilmer (knee) and linebacker Rashad Jeanty (calf). Head coach Marvin Lewis said he is optimistic that all four players would be able to return after the Oct. 7 bye. The Bengals will play Oct. 14 at Kansas City.
Probable today are right tackle Willie Anderson (heel), center Eric Ghiaciuc (thumb), kicker Shane Graham (groin), wide receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh (knee), linebacker Anthony Schlegel (toe) and defensive end Justin Smith (foot). Smith and Anderson did not practice. Ghiaciuc, Houshmandzadeh and Schlegel practiced fully, and Graham was limited.

Post a Comment*It's such a shame to see the trouble at linebacker. I hope Odell is sitting somewhere regretting his mistakes. I would have much rather seen the linebacker core succeed so Thurman could earn some jealousy and question where he fits in (if at all).
What a shame. I bet Ed Hartwell is still an upgrade over any of these nobodies that are going to get manhandled on Monday. What a tailspin this season is heading into.
Again, I ask anyone...IS THIS A SURPRISE??? This team did ZERO in Free Agency to improve this team from last year.
They knew Odell, Pollack weren't coming back. Caleb Miller and Landon Johnson weren't the answer last year and surely aren't this year. Thank God Mike Brown made Marvin draft Ahmad Brooks, or we would really be done....
Pats--38 Ben-GALS-- 20
