You are being gifted the opportunity to be the pencilled in starter based off NOTHING but your draft status. And you tweak your elbow a little bit and you have the nerve to take a practice off and allow Volston to get YOUR 1st team reps?
Carmen is looking to me like he doesn’t really care about working for his spot.
I don’t know him, idk how hurt his elbow is but I’m sorry.
My guess is the decision to not practice is a coach's or trainer's decision.
I don't think Carman played well Friday either, but not as bad as some think.
Also, just because he can't practice does not mean he can work on fitness on the rehab field.
Yes, he needs the work, but we have seen small injuries develop into major injuries so why would the team risk him being injured worse by practicing or playing in preseason games right now. It is long time until September 11, I hope he is 100% then.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
