Bentley Injures Knee
He was just carted off field about 20 minutes ago. Extent of the injury isn't known yet. But it doesn't sound good. At all.
UPDATE 3:32pm: Mary Kay Cabot is reporting that Bentley is done for the year:
A source close to Browns center LeCharles Bentley said that it appears Bentley has suffered a torn patellar tendon in his left knee and will be lost for the season.
The Browns have not confirmed the injury and Bentley is still at the Cleveland Clinic. Browns GM Phil Savage will address the media before the 5:30 practice.
Bentley was injured during a team drill in Thursday's morning practice at Berea.
UPDATE 1:11pm: Video of the injury here.
UPDATE 12:04pm: Barry McBride from The Orange and Brown Report says,
"Guys, I was talking with one of our NFL sources and told him that it might be a patella tear, and he told me to "pray it was a broken leg instead". It depends on how serious it is. A serious patella tear could knock him out for the season, and a broken leg would actually be better than that.- Barry"
UPDATE 11:47am: Preliminary word is that it could be an injury to the patella tendon. Bentley was taken to the Cleveland Clinic immediately and was to undergo an MRI to determine the exact extent of the injury.
UPDATE 11:36am: OK, some are saying that because they put him in an air cast that it might not be his knee. Usually with ligament tears the player can walk afterwards and they're never fitted with a cast. So it might not be season ending. We'll see...
