"Wide receiver Cody Core, perhaps the Bengals’ most improved player in the spring camps, went down late in Wednesday’s practice with what appeared to be a bruised ankle. The Bengals didn't comment on the injury, but indications late Wednesday afternoon were he'll be ready for training camp.
It sure looked a lot worse than that.
As Core rolled around on the Paul Brown Stadium turf hugging his left knee to his chest in severe pain, head coach Marvin Lewis cut short the middle practice of the three-day mandatory camp. It was unclear if it was because of Core’s injury or the thunder rolling through the stadium, but he was carted to the X-Ray room.
Core emerged a few minutes later straight-legged but left foot not touching the ground with trainers Keith Justice and Dan Willen on either side of him.
After wide receiver Alex Erickson caught a check-down pass over the middle, Core simulated blocking against two defenders before crumbling and grabbing his leg. Late indications were his foot got stepped on."
