The Cincinnati Bengals appears to have suffered a significant injury to their team Thursday. Wide receiver and return man Charlie Jones had to be carted off the field after suffering a non-contact injury during practice. Jones was reportedly favoring his right leg. 

The play occurred during 7-on-7; Jones caught the ball and went down on his own, and appeared in serious pain. 

Thursday also marked the first day the team practiced on new turf at Paycor Stadium.    

A fourth-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Jones had been competing for first-team reps prior to getting injured. Jones, 25, missed a chunk of the 2023 season after injuring his thumb in the Bengals' Week 3 win over the Rams. A week earlier, he scored his first NFL touchdown (as well as the Bengals' first touchdown of the season) on an 81-yard punt return against the Ravens.
