In a Sunday night loss to the Detroit Tigers, the Cincinnati Bengals also saw star wide receiver Chad Johnson go down with a semi-serious shoulder injury.

The Bengals dropped the game 27-10 but perhaps more devastating for the team heading into the 2008 season is the fact that Johnson's shoulder was reportedly dislocated and eventually popped back into place.

Though Johnson did not return over the course of the rest of the game medical tests showed that there was no fracture.

Bengals head coach Marvin Lewis believes that the wide receiver will be back in time for the opener.

The injury comes with Bengals pro bowler T.J. Houshmandzadeh already sidelined with a hamstring injury.
