Cincinnati Bengals starting center Trey Hopkins suffered a torn ACL in his left knee during Sunday’s season finale. Head coach Zac Taylor revealed Hopkins’ diagnosis on Monday.
“He tore his ACL and he will require surgery, so that obviously is not a fun Week 17 injury,” Taylor said of Hopkins. “He's one of those guys that has been all about everything we've tried to accomplish. He's been a really steady force for us at center, so that's difficult. So, obviously it will be a standard rehab there, but that's disappointing for Trey.”
Hopkins tore his ACL at the beginning of the third quarter.
