Fantasy Football

The Facts:
Johnson left the afternoon practice on a cart after pulling up in a 7-on-7 drill with what Marvin Lewis called a "strain core muscle," referring to the trunk of the body. Lewis said he didn't think it was serious, "but we've got a lot of time not to tell you anything about that." Reported by Bengals.com

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Well played coach. ... Watching tape of the play in question (on NFL Total Access), Johnson was clearly clutching his midsection after going down. He appeared to be tripped up by a defender. ... The injury was subsequently identified as a pulled groin. We'll go with Lewis' assessment of the injury for now and let you know more as developments warrant.
