D.J. Reader Designated To Return From Injured Reserve
2 years agoThe Cincinnati Bengals have designated defensive lineman D.J. Reader (knee) to return from Injured Reserve, which opens up his 21-day window to officially be activated from IR. Reader has been out for the last six games due to a sprained MCL, but he'll be able to return to practice this week and has a shot to come off IR to play as soon as Week 11 against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers as the team comes off their Week 10 bye. The 28-year-old's return will beef up the interior of the Bengals' defensive line for the second half of the 2022 season. Before his injury, Reader played in only three games, recording 10 tackles (eight solo), three QB hits and a fumble recovery.
