Cincinnati Bengals starting linebacker Rashad Jeanty was injured on the opening kickoff during Sunday’s playoff game against the New York Jets.

Unfortunately for Jeanty, the injury was two-fold. The defensive player suffered a sprained left knee and an ankle injury.

His return to the game is doubtful.

Brandon Johnson replaced Jeanty at linebacker.

UPDATE: Jeanty fractured his tibia. He is done for the season (more)
