Poor guy. Just can't avoid injuries. Some guys get injured no matter how hard they work. It was almost predictable he would get hurt again, but hopefully it isn't as bad as it appears. And it looks bad.

Tyler Eifert exits after suffering apparent leg injury
Disaster has struck the Bengals.
After piling up an impressive 28 first-half points against the Falcons, Cincinnati lost one of their most important players Sunday when oft-banged up, playmaking tight end Tyler Eifert suffered a gruesome lower leg injury following a third-quarter catch.
The 28-year-old Eifert was in visible pain after being dragged to the ground by Falcons linebacker De'Vondre Campbell, a play that saw the tight end's right ankle twist in terrible fashion. Placed in an air cast, Eifert was carted off the field with tears in his eyes.
Signed to a one-year, $5.5 million prove-it deal, Eifert looked the part early with a 15-yard catch from quarterback Andy Dalton. It's fair to wonder if he'll ever score again for the Bengals after Sunday's ugly turn of events.
