Dave Lapham Offers Less Than Ideal Update About Alex Cappa

Hopefully this isn't the case.
In this story:

CINCINNATI — Bengals head coach Zac Taylor didn't sound optimistic about Alex Cappa playing in Sunday's playoff opener against the Ravens. 

The 27-year-old suffered an ankle injury in the third quarter of Cincinnati's Week 18 win over Baltimore and didn't return to the game.

"We'll see. It'll be tough this week,"Taylor said. 

Bengals radio analyst Dave Lapham offered up his thoughts during Bengals Line on 700 WLW on Monday night. 

"That injury is significant," Lapham told Lance McAlister. "There's no way in my mind Alex Cappa is playing in the playoffs the rest of the season.

"It would not surprise me if the news was very bad."

Max Scharping is expected to fill in for Cappa, who has been the Bengals' best offensive lineman this season. It's a significant loss for an offense that has played well in the second half of the season.
