Was Riley Reiff placed on season ending IR or could he play if he was able to? Originally said good chance to make it back for playoffs then said he’s done for the season. Maybe they didn’t think about us making it to the AFC Championship and maybe he is healthy enough to play.

I thought he was done no matter what, but I’m not positive.

This reports he can return from IR after 3 weeks if healthy.

I hope he can play next week!!

He is on IR. If he becomes healthy enough to return and play, he will be activated. If not, he stays on IR. He was eligible to return after his third week on IR, which I believe was after the KC game.

I thought ZT already said he was out for the season even if we make the superbowl. Or was that for someone else?

Yeah I asked this in the GD thread. I believe Zac said he was done for the year. But I never heard the exact injury he sustained other than ankle. I don't remember hearing anything about surgery. Does anyone have specifics?

He may have.  I have no idea.  The question was posed as to if he is eligible to come back.  The answer is yes, if he is healthy.  If he isn't healthy enough to play, it doesn't matter if he is eligible to return.

Yep Zac said he’s not going to be back this season no matter how far we go.

If it required surgery, the odds are that ligaments and/or tendons were torn.  That is a 4-6 month recovery.  Zac confirmed he would not be healthy for the playoffs

Yeah, its a bummer but he is out for the season. 

I thought he would be back by now,all he had was a high ankle injury..wondering if there's any updates on this guy we could really use this week..

I think Zac had ruled him out for the remainder of the season back in December. He said the ankle wasn't improve, but instead getting worse. 

He had to have surgery which almost always means a ligament tear. That is a 4-6 month recovery

Yeah I know he was declared out for the season I assumed regular season, but the thinking was he'll have a chance to get back for the post season..anyway if he's not back then fred Johnson should be the right tackle and Jackson Carman should be the right guard..

I've seen enough of prince and Adeniji to know that they have physical limitations and that's fine everyone's not blessed with god given talent;but with that said it's no denying that both Carman and Johnson have far more upside than the other 2 guys..

1000% agree
can it be any worse then Adeniji and Prince on that side? Although Prince is getting decent PFF numbers....?? its not passing my eye test

He struggled and fought at the end of the season but the game against the Titans he was very good.

I started rewatching the game last night but i was focusing on the left side of the line first time though to figure out why Spain was so upset with his tweets. PFF must have determined that it was Adeniji's fault on one of the first few where adeniji blocked down with hopkins and Prince turned out letting a free runner in. to me only the bengals know who made the wrong call.
