Bengals Tight End Reggie Kelly not to play in 2009.

By: Cooper Ledford SWO Sports Founder and CEO

In Georgetown KY in Bengals training camp TE Reggie Kelly injured his Achilles heel and will miss all of the 2009 and season. Now Bengals Tight End coach Jon Hayes will have to make a tough decision on who to pick to replace Kelly, Ben Utecht or Chase Coffman. Bengals fans want Ben Utecht because he is a veteran and has more experience. However, Hayes does have a long time relationship with Chase Coffman. When Chase was a little boy in Kansas Hayes was living there as well, they knew each other and Chase's fater was good friends with Hayes. Jon Hayes says that when Chase was about 4 or 5 years old he would do a lot of things to prove he was tough. Hayes says "Trust me, He is tough enough (to play TE for the Bengals)" Head Coach Marvin Lewis says "They have to replace not only Reggie's snaps, but his influence on what we do." It will be intersting to see who will be playing TE for the Cincinnati Bengals in the upcoming season.
