Despite tearing his Achilles last November, Leon Hall says his recovery is going very well and that he expects to be ready for the 1st day of Training Camp next month. A return for Training Camp seems very optimistic since he’ll be only 8 months removed from an injury that normally takes 10-12 months, but some players do heal better than others.
Joe Reedy, one of the Bengals’ top beat writers, believes that Hall will be ready for the start of the regular season, which would be about 9 ½ months after the injury. If he can’t go, rookie Dre Kirkpatrick will likely start opposite veteran Nate Clements. If Hall recovers for Training Camp and Kirkpatrick impressed in camp, the Bengals may cut Clements rather than pay him 4.3 million this year. The Bengals don’t want to rush Kirkpatrick into action too quickly though.
