Following up on our previous item about Bengals defensive tackle Geno Atkins being carted to the locker room, there’s good news in Cincinnati.
Atkins is fine.
A league source tells PFT that Atkins was exhausted and had sore feet after playing through a long, hard game against the Ravens after not playing much in the preseason. But he doesn’t have any significant injuries.
Atkins was an All-Pro in both 2011 and 2012 but missed most of 2013 with a torn ACL. The Bengals need him to stay healthy this year, and through one game he has.
