Chidobe Awuzie Makes First Public Comments Since Suffering Torn ACL
CINCINNATI — Bengals cornerback Chidobe Awuzie suffered a torn right ACL in Monday night's loss to the Browns, league sources tell All Bengals.
The veteran left the game in the second quarter and didn't return. He walked out of the stadium on crutches and had a brace on his right knee.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport was the first to report the news.
Awuzie made his first public comments on Tuesday afternoon.
"Peace & love," he tweeted. "It’s part of the game. God will provide the necessary strength."
Awuzie was the Bengals' top cornerback. He has 35 tackles this season and has regularly guarded the opposing teams best wide receiver. This is a huge loss for the Bengals' defense.
