GEORGETOWN, Ky. (AP) — Quarterback Andy Dalton was warming up on the field when a storm moved in Saturday, forcing him and the rest of the Cincinnati Bengals to run for cover.

Another setback in Cincinnati’s rough year.

The Bengals’ first scheduled practice of training camp was postponed because of a storm Saturday afternoon. Dalton, a second-round pick from TCU, was on the field with teammates warming up in an orange No. 14 jersey when heavy rain and lightning moved in.

Players ran to the locker room and returned a few minutes later after the rain let up. They were out there for only four minutes when another cloudburst forced the team to reschedule practice for the evening.
