Turner helped Chase off the field. After a few minutes, the Bengals star wideout was seen talking back at defensive backs and trying to get back into practice.
The Bengals medical team ruled him out for the rest of the day.
“I think Cincinnati had a scare (Tuesday),” said Chase. “I missed the ground. I missed my footing, something like that. I sat back down on the ground. I just took a minute to pray, then I got back up. Other than that, I really can’t think about anything but God and making sure I’m all right.”
He called it a tweak.
Chase said that he would play if the Bengals played tomorrow.
Cincinnati closes the preseason on Friday when they play at Philadelphia at 8 p.m.
