Knee Injury Prognosis for Bengals Tight End Uzomah ‘Encouraging’

However, it's looking like the injury may not have been quite as bad as it seemed.
Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor gave an update on Uzomah's knee during media availability Monday, saying that the prognosis is “encouraging.” Uzomah suffered an MCL sprain that appeared to be much worse at the time.
