DJ Reader- "doesn't look good" media was reporting a serious quad injury

Ja'Marr Chase-no information...the injury happened so late in the game that no imaging has been done yet

DJ Ivey-no update

I’m glad it’s not a knee. On a guy that size. Even harder to rehab.

Ivey was crying for a reason. Probably a season ending knee or something.

Let’s goooooo!!!!!

Charlie Jones?

Hope he's good.

Not his fault.

Have a feeling we won’t see Reader or Ivey again this season which sucks. I couldn’t tell but it looked like Chase had a sling on under his jacket???

He walked off...I think he just had the breathe knocked out of him

Can be sure. look how Trevor Lawrence was apoplectic, threw down his helmet, had to be helped off the field, and ended up playing the next game. 

At any rate, injuries happen to every team. I never expected the Bengals to hold on 3rd and inches and 4th and inches in overtime without Reader, but they found a way.

With a quad injury, I would expect Reader to be out for the rest of the year. A bad day for DJ’s.

Trevor acted like his leg needed to be amputated

Good point and and great use of the word apoplectic. Lol.

They need to make that a penalty (throwing a blocker into a Fair Catcher).

Someone's going to get seriously hurt if teams start purposely doing that.

These injuries have killed us but they are ironically why we’ve been able to win without Burrow

I agree. What's the difference between a gunner flying in and popping you before you catch it or someone being shoved into you?

He looked a little wobbly to me when he finally got up.

Ja'Marr Chase had his right shoulder wrapped after the game and was at his locker. Should know more tomorrow.

Yeah they kept showing him baby stepping his way to the locker room. I heard the joke somewhere that they have a billion golf carts in florida but couldn't get one for Trevor.

I was assuming it was serious as quick as they had him changed and out. But players play thru shoulder stuff all the time so I guess we'll just have to wait and see.

depending on the severity, he can be out for a portion of next season as well

This really sucks for both the team AND Reader moving forward. Isn't this his second quad injury since being here? Coming up on age 30 and looking for another contract. I feel so damn bad for him. I expect Tufule to be a gameday-active moving forward. Don't we have a DT stashed on the PS as well? DT room is gonna have to step up big time in Reader's absence!

It's going to be interesting how it affects free agency. Reader would have been a solid resign even at his age but thr Bengals don't have a nose tackle for 2024 and Reader could miss part of that season?
