During Sundays Hall of Fame game, Bengalsย running backย Brian Leonard suffered a “significant foot injury” which according to Joe Reedy ofย the Cincinnati Enquirer could cause Leonard to miss anywhere from a couple of weeks to the entire season depending on the test results. The loss of the multifaceted back would leave the Bengals with very limited depth at the position.
Given that the Bengals already have a bruising style back in Cedric Benson, Cincinnati could look to add aย versatile back such asย Brian Westbrook to the backfield who could compliment Benson and Bernard Scott.
Other potential options could be Willie Parker and Marshawn Lynch but considering that both currently are currently playing for other teams theseย scenariosย are less likely.
