Bears linebacker carted off with leg injury vs. Bengals

It was a rough first half for the Chicago Bears in their preseason game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Not only did they trail 17-9, but they lost yet another player to an injury during an injury-riddled training camp.

Linebacker Nephi Sewell, the brother of Penei and Noah Sewell, was carted off the field after going down less than a minute before halftime, where it appears to be a right leg (knee) injury. This just one week removed from Sewell exiting the preseason opener after entering concussion protocol against the Cleveland Browns.

Noah Sewell, teammates with Nephi on the Bears, came onto the field to talk with his brother before he was carted back to the locker room.

Nephi Sewell totaled one tackle and one QB hit in the first half against the Bengals.
