It’s truly surreal. Never in 14 years covering this team and practices have I seen Mike Brown summon a player from stretch to his cart.

Much less go for a ride around the 40-yard line. https://t.co/lX2c5MW5Zi

I saw this on Twitter and all the Bengals beat writers seemed to be really interested in this little cart ride. I think the general consensus seemed to be that it was a negative sign.

Perhaps a terrible post. But what do you think it means if anything? What do you think Mikey wanted to chat about?

Best guess: Joe is pushing hard to start and doing his best to hide it if he's in pain.  The look on his face when he hopped off the cart tells me that Mike might have discouraged being a hero, maybe even outright told him he wasn't playing.
