Bengals Defense Loses D.J. Reader For The Season
4 years agoCincinnati Bengals defensive tackle D.J. Reader (quadriceps) will miss the rest of the season after he suffered an injury in the Week 5 loss to the Ravens, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Reader was carted off the field with less than nine minutes left in the third quarter on Sunday. He signed a four-year deal worth $53 million in the offseason, which was the biggest contract given to a free agent in franchise history. Reader had 18 tackles, one for a loss, in the first four games of the 2020 season. It's a big loss for Cincy, as he's the fourth defensive tackle to be put on Injured Reserve or to opt out for the Bengals. The team signed defensive tackle Xavier Williams to replace Reader on the roster. Continue ignoring the Bengals Defense in fantasy.
