Bengals middle linebacker Rey Maualuga has been ruled out of Monday’s game in New York (8:30 p.m.-Cincinnati’s Channel 5 and ESPN) with what head coach Marvin Lewis calls a lower leg injury. But that’s about all Lewis knows as the Bengals try to find out if it is serious enough to end his season.
“It’s something he’s been dealing with,” Lewis said after Saturday’s walk through at Paul Brown Stadium. “We wanted him to get it looked at to make sure we know what’s going on.”
Asked if he’s concerned it is season ending, Lewis could only offer, “No concern about what I can’t control,” indicating they’re trying to get a better read on it.
