IRONS OUT FOR SEASON

Bengals rookie running back Kenny Irons has pulled a Ki-Jana Carter.

Irons, the team's second-round pick in the 2007 draft, tore an ACL in the preseason opener against the Lions on Thursday night.

As Bengals.com points out, Carter's torn ACL came against the Lions as well, in a 1995 preseason game. Carter was the first overall selection in the draft that year.

The team hoped that Irons would perform better than 2004 first-round selection Chris Perry, whose career as the backup to Rudi Johnson has been marred by injury. Perry currently is on the PUP list.

This definitely sucks for the Bengals.

Irons had the potential to be a very good back-up, and I was looking forward to seeing how he did in Cincainnati because I was a big fan of his during his years at Auburn...

So, this isn't great news to start off the preseason for the Bengals. But oh well. It's football - that happens... Better Irons that Rudi Johnson, eh?

I seriously think are plauged when it comes to drafting high pick RB's i could name loads down the years but in recent histoy its now 1st round pick Perry who can't get healthy enough to even be in the squad. and now this ! FFS looks like Quincy Wilson is finaly going to get his shot, he is a Rudi Clone but i will take that, can't have Rudi pounding the load all season again.
