The Cincinnati Bengals are holding their breath after watching one of their best players go down early in their Week 4 matchup with the Carolina Panthers.
After the Panthers moved into the red zone on the opening possession, cornerback Mike Hilton went down in the end zone following a Carolina run play. He was favoring his left knee while being examined by trainers.
After being down for about a minute, Hilton was able to get up but had to be assisted to the sideline for further testing. He went into the blue medical tent for further testing and is now walking around on the sideline, so he may have dodged a major injury.
