Commanders' Bo Bauer: Carted off during practice
Rotowire
Bauer hurt his right leg during practice Thursday and was carted off the field, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.
The specific nature of Bauer's injury hasn't yet been shared, but it's rarely a good sign when a player leaves the field on a cart. The 24-year-old Notre Dame product is trying to make Washington's 53-man roster or practice squad and recorded one tackle (on special teams) during the club's exhibition opener versus the Jets last week.
