Bengals rookie center Billy Price (right ankle) and defensive end Michael Johnson (left knee) each left Cincinnati's Thursday game against the Baltimore Ravens in the first quarter and were ruled out.
Cincinnati running back Joe Mixon went in and out of the game because of a right knee injury. Originally hurt in the first half, he finished with 87 total yards on 22 touches in the Bengals' 34-23 victory.
Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick went to the locker room in the final minutes with a right leg injury, shortly before safety Shawn Williams limped off due to an apparent injury.
Price, the team's first-round pick out of Ohio State in April, planted awkwardly on his right foot and was initially called questionable to return. He was then seen in the third quarter on the Bengals' sideline wearing street clothes and a boot on his right foot.
Johnson, a 10th-year veteran who has missed just four career games, left early in the first period and was immediately ruled out, but it was not apparent how he was injured.
Mixon, a 2017 second-round pick, totaled 149 total yards and a touchdown in the season opener last week at Indianapolis.
Price missed much of the Bengals' offseason program with a torn pectoral muscle sustained at the NFL Scouting Combine, but he was healthy enough to claim a starting job in the preseason.
