Injury update: Jonathan Allen helped to sideline with apparent left leg injury

Jonathan Allen went down with a left leg injury on Sunday, and he sat on the sideline without his helmet for the rest of practice.

A troubling moment in training camp came on Sunday morning, when veteran defensive lineman and team leader Jonathan Allen went down with an apparent injury in practice, leading him to be helped off the field.

Allen, who was holding his left leg while down on the turf, was helped to the sideline, where he sat without his helmet for a while as teammates came and checked on him. Allen remained sitting on a cooler, repeatedly flexing his leg, and not appearing to be in too much pain, but still remaining concerned. The training staff eventually came over and put a brace on his knee, but it appears that his day is done.

We will hear from coaches later to get an update, but it’s unclear how serious the injury is at the moment.
