Any look back at Bengals LB Keith Rivers’(notes) rookie season – and any look forward at what Rivers could become – must start with how his first year ended: on the receiving end of a block from physical Steelers WR Hines Ward(notes).
The blow broke Rivers’ jaw in two places, landed him on injured reserve and rendered him a spectator for the second half of the season. It’s exactly the sort of injury someone could dwell upon, but it is old news to Rivers.
