Cincinnati Bengals starting right tackle Trent Brown sustained a torn patellar tendon and is out for the remainder of the season, NFL Network reported on Tuesday.
Per the report, Brown is expected to make a full recovery.
Brown was injured during the second quarter of Cincinnati’s 38-33 loss to the Washington Commanders on Monday. It occurred as the Bengals were driving inside the Washington 20. Brown went down and several offensive line teammates came over to help him onto the cart.
Brown was declared out soon after reaching the locker room. He was replaced by Cincinnati’s first-round pick, Amarius Mims, who made his NFL debut earlier in the game.
Brown, 31, was a Pro Bowl performer in 2019 for the then-Oakland Raiders, one of his four NFL teams. He was a starter for the New England Patriots through their run to the Super Bowl championship after the 2018 season.
Brown has appeared in 103 games with 96 starts for the 49ers, Patriots, Raiders and Bengals since he was selected by San Francisco in the seventh round of the 2015 NFL Draft.
