Playoff contender suffers massive blow with star wideout carted off the field

Devastating.

UPDATE:

The Cincinnati Bengals are right in playoff contention in the embattled AFC North. Those chances just took a hit Sunday afternoon on the Bengals' first drive, when wideout A.J. Green was carted off the field after suffering an apparent hamstring injury.

The Bengals (3-5-1) trail the Pittsburgh Steelers (4-5) and Baltimore Ravens (5-4) in the tough division.

Green, a five-time Pro Bowler, has 964 yards and four touchdowns this season.
