Riley Reiff To IR, Chidobe Awuzie On COVID-19 List
3 years agoThe Cincinnati Bengals placed right tackle Riley Reiff (ankle) on Injured Reserve and cornerback Chidobe Awuzie on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Thursday. Reiff, who was already doubtful to play in Week 15 against the Denver Broncos, will now miss at least the next three games. Awuzie is unlikely to play this Sunday, even if he's fully vaccinated. Reiff has been key on the right side of Cincy's offensive line, so his absence over the next three weeks is bad news for quarterback Joe Burrow. If Trae Waynes (hamstring) is unable to return from IR to play this weekend, the Bengals secondary will be extra vulnerable against the Broncos. Either way, Vernon Hargreaves should have a big role in Week 15.
