The Cincinnati Bengals have placed cornerback Cam Taylor-Britt on injured reserve, the team announced Monday. He must now miss the next four games, including the Week 13 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
In addition, the Bengals have signed QB AJ McCarron off its practice squad to the active roster, so he will be taking Taylor Britt’s roster spot.
This is brutal news for the second-year defensive back, who was enjoying a breakout season at cornerback. However, he suffered a quad injury in Week 11 that led to him missing the team’s Week 12 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.
