Bengals rookie RB Anderson has torn ACL again

CINCINNATI -- The season for one of the Bengals' promising rookies is likely over.

Head coach Zac Taylor confirmed on Friday that running back Rodney Anderson tore his ACL again in Thursday's preseason finale. This is the second time in as many years that Anderson suffered the exact same injury.

The sixth-round pick left Thursday's game with a right knee injury after a 4-yard carry in the first quarter of the Bengals' 13-6 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. It was Anderson's second game of the preseason and was three weeks after he was cleared to practice.
