It’s safe to say the Bengals won’t be returning to practice in Dayton anytime soon.
After using Welcome Stadium’s field to open training camp, Bengals receivers Tyler Boyd and Josh Malone did not have kind words for the condition of the field’s turf. The fact that A.J. Green got hurt didn’t exactly lighten the situation, even though his injury wasn’t caused by the field’s subpar state.
This was something that Dayton Public Schools Athletic Director Shawna Welch was not going to let slide.
“For its age, it is in really good shape, and we take care of it on a yearly basis,” Welch told the Dayton Daily News.
