Irons' Season Ends Before It Begins


Cincinnati Bengals rookie Kenny Irons was expected to split carries with runningback Rudi Johnson this year. It looks like Rudi has the sole position now as Irons tore his ACL in last nights game vs the Detroit Lions. The former Auburn star tore the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee in Thursday's preseason opener and will require surgery. The Bengals said they expect Irons to recover fully and rejoin the team for next spring's offseason program. Irons, 23, limped off the field following a 7-yard gain against the Detroit Lions on Thursday night. It was his fourth rushing attempt of the contest and, in all, he gained 16 yards on the ground. The 49th player chosen overall in this year's draft, Irons had been one of the Bengals' standouts in training camp.
