Cincinnati Bengals running back Trayveon Williams and undrafted free-agent defensive lineman Devonnsha Maxwell were carted off with injuries during Tuesday’s practice.
Williams appeared to suffer an ankle injury and got that taped up before going to the back.
Later, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Williams suffered what is believed to be a mild ankle sprain, which will cause him to miss a few weeks of action.
Maxwell suffered an apparent leg injury during offensive line against defensive line work and left the field.
Williams’ is an interesting one to watch, as he was in line for the first shot as the immediate rotational back behind starter Joe Mixon. Rookie Chase Brown and Chris Evans will get more reps as a result, creating a roster battle that could end up more interesting than expected now.
