Never a good sign when you draft a guy already hurt in the first round, and then in his second year he's hurt again.
Not saying injury prone, just not a good started trend.

If it's turf toe, that can be a living *****. Good to have a guy of Fisher's ability to slide right in there.
Lots of early injuries this year, where lst year, we were pretty much injury-free for a long time. Maybe this year we'll go into the back half of the season getting stronger and not having many injuries heading into the playoffs. Hey. I'm an optimistic guy.

Ingenious! playing the two young tackles more than any other offensive player in the first preseason game.

I am with you brother.
Thank goodness for taking Fisher in the 2nd round last year that made EVERYBODY say WHAT!!!
I actually think that Fisher would be a better RT anyway and Ogbuehi a better LT.
We will see how this works out.

Yes, God forbid they get much needed experience via playing time.

This team always has an injury issue. I don't remember the last time this team had talent on it and didn't have major injuries.

Didn't Ogbuehi play better at RT than LT in college?

This simply is not treu.
Last year the Bengals were the healthiest team in the entire league.

Your QB being out cripples your whole offense. Your QB being out is about the same as all your weapons being hurt. Saying we were the healthiest team in the NFL is a joke, and anyone with any sense will know that.

A couple things with your post.
1. he had an injury in college so as of last year he never had an injury as a Bengal last year and he played late in the year
2. Lets clarify injury vs. hurt, he had a for sure injury last year coming into camp from college and could not play, im not sure if he is actually injured and totally out of playing or just hurt and being held out of practice/playing to be safe and let him heal a bit more, there is a difference between being hurt and injured.

Knew there was a reason for taking 2 OT's with first two picks in draft last year.
Just took until now to figure it out.
