Glad the Birds didn't put out the money now...
BEREA, Ohio -- Pro Bowl center LeCharles Bentley sustained an injury to his left knee during the Browns' first 11-on-11 drill of training camp on Thursday.

Bentley got tangled in a pile of players as he was blocking on a running play for Reuben Droughns.

Bentley screamed, "No," before remaining on his knees as the Browns moved their scrimmage up the field so trainers could attend to the 6-foot-2, 309-pound player.

He stayed on the ground in a seated position for several minutes before Cleveland's medical staff immobilized his left knee and carted him to the locker room.

Bentley covered his face with a towel on the short drive to the field house as Browns players and fans looked on in shock.

The extent of Bentley's injury is not yet known.

Bentley, a five-year veteran, signed as a free agent with the Browns in March.

What's to say if he had signed w/ the Eagles that he would have gotten hurt??

I hope the guy is okay. I worl w/ two Brown fans and if he is gone for the year, they are going to be pretty depressed.

Supposedly a patella tendon tear.

In any case, Cleveland Fan is used to it by now. Look for LeBron to mangle his knee in the FIBA World Championships this summer.

The first play. That fucking sucks Brown fan.

I think it would be wise to wrap Kellen Winslow in bubble tape and sit him until opening day,.
