CINCINNATI - Receiver Brandon LaFell likely wont play Thursday night when his Cincinnati Bengals visit the Detroit Lions in both teams second preseason game, coach Marvin Lewis said Tuesday.According to a report, he could miss more than just this weeks game.NFL.com reported Tuesday morning that LaFell could undergo surgery that wouldnt end his season on his right hand after tearing a ligament. The website also said it was possible LaFell could opt for rehab and try to play through the injury. During an interview session with reporters following Tuesdays walkthrough, Lewis implied the latter might happen.Asked if LaFell might miss time when the regular season started, Lewis replied: No. In regard to Thursdays game, Lewis said hell make a decision just before it.The seventh-year receiver, who didnt play Friday in the preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings, has had his right hand wrapped for about a week. Even with that, he has participated in some parts of Bengals practices. On Monday, an uncovered LaFell caught passes from Andy Dalton in quarterback-receiver route drills.He did not participate in the ?team portions of the workout that day, and he didnt participate at all in Tuesdays walkthrough.Bengals receivers coach James Urban said little will change for the Bengals if LaFell has to miss much time. The same leadership the 29-year-old veteran has shown since arriving this spring as a free agent has been evident while hes been hurt, Urban said.He was on the sideline coaching them up and interacting with them and all that, and hes been out with us in practice trying to keep his lungs and continue to stay in football shape while dealing with that thing, Urban said. So hes around. ... Its just that were not getting the reps with Andy right now.Although LaFell played in 11 games with the Patriots in 2015, he was playing through an ankle injury all season. He likely will have to do that again with his injured hand.This injury is the latest to have befallen the Bengals in recent weeks. On Monday, rookie defensive tackle Andrew Billings underwent surgery to fix a meniscus tear in a knee. Last week, the Bengals learned cornerbacks Darqueze Dennard (ankle) and William Jackson III (chest) would miss time with serious injuries. Dennard should be back in time for the start of the season, but Jackson, the Bengals 2016 first-round pick, could be out all season like Billings.Also this training camp the Bengals have lost tight end Tyler Kroft for multiple weeks after he suffered an in-practice knee injury. With him sidelined, the Bengals are down to their third tight end, as starter Tyler Eifert was already rehabbing an ankle injury he received in the Pro Bowl. The Bengals are optimistic Eifert, Kroft, Dennard and LaFell could be in uniform Week 1 at the New York Jets.Theres nothing you can do, Lewis said of preseason injuries. The fortunate thing of it is when it counts you have everybody up and running. Thats the key element. If we dont, well have them up and running soon after that.

NHL Jerseys From China . LOUIS -- St. HOMESTEAD, Fla. -- Richard Petty and Jimmie Johnson could soon a share a spot in NASCARs championship record book.The racing greats dont share much of a friendship.Petty, NASCARs career leader with 200 wins, has yet to speak to Johnson since the Hendrick Motorsports star earned a spot in the season finale with a championship berth on the line. Johnson would match Petty and Dale Earnhardt with seven Cup championships should be best Carl Edwards, Joey Logano and Kyle Busch in Sundays race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.The King knew the year would come when he would have to share his championship throne.Petty said he wasnt openly rooting for a driver he barely knows to match his championship mark.I aint got a dog in this fight, you know what I mean, Petty said Saturday. Probably from the PR standpoint, it would be great if he could win it. Because then every time they say something about him, theyre going to say something about me and Earnhardt.Petty said he doesnt have much of a relationship with Johnson and they havent talked to each other since the Hendrick Motorsports star clinched his championship spot with a win at Martinsville.Jimmie is just another one out there, Petty said inside his motorhome. Weve never really socialized at all. Ive been at a bunch of meetings and places with him. Probably all weve ever done is say hello to each other.Johnson made his Sprint Cup debut in 2001 and won championships from 2006-2010 and a sixth in 2013. Earnhardt won championships in 1980 and went back-to-back in 1986-1987, 1990-1991 and 1993-1994. Pettys championships came in 1964, 1967, 1971, 1972, 1974, 1975 and 1979.I was the first one to climb the mountain, Petty said.ddddddddddddPetty and Earnhardt won their championships when NASCAR decided a champion under a season-long points system. Johnson won his in the 10-race Chase for the Sprint championship playoff era. Johnson tries for No. 7 in the third season of the Chase elimination format.Theres no way to compare with what Ive done, or what Earnhardts done or what Jimmies doing against each other, Petty said.Petty, whose 27 victories in 1967 still stand as a single-season record, has remained a fixture in NASCAR with his ownership stake in Richard Petty Motorsports. He turns 80 next year and remains a familiar sight at racetracks in feathered cowboy hats, dark glasses and cowboy boots.Its been good PR for me because this time last year, no one said, `Richard Petty won seven championships, he said. We wouldnt even be mentioned. Its brought us back into the forefront. A lot of the fans, old fans, new fans, never really think about that part. Now, theyve brought it into focus.Johnson had his eye on seven since he won his sixth championship in 2013. Only 41, a motivated Johnson has more shots at seven, eight, even more titles.It would be a massive honor to join Petty and Earnhardt, he said.Petty will congratulate Johnson after the race should he tie the record. Maybe then, the seven-time champs will have more of a chance to catch up.Ive been busy answering questions about Jimmie, Petty said, so I havent had a chance to talk with him.---More AP auto racing: www.racing.ap.org Cheap NFL Gear Cheap Jerseys Store Cheap Jerseys Online Cheap Stitched Jerseys NFL Jerseys From China China NFL Hoodies Youth NFL Jerseys Wholesale Cheap NFL Womens Jerseys Camo China NFL Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys 2019 Stitched Jerseys Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Jerseys 2020 Wholesale Authentic Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys Outlet ' ' '
