The Bengals have NEVER had 15 on IR at the same time.

I doubt ANY NFL team has ever had that!

What the doctor said.....

First.   They had 21 players on season ending IR in 2018.
Second.   IR this year is totally different from all previous, as this year it is more of a baseball-like DL.  previous years, IR is permanent.   Prior to this year teams just inactivated their injured till they healed or if at the bottom a depth chart waived them and filled in the roster spot with PS players.   So having 15 players on IR is alot, but not like they will be without their services for the rest of the season.

We had major contributors on season ending IR last year as well. Burrow, Waynes, Reader, Mixon, Hopkins, probably one or two I'm forgetting. Topou opted out, Hubbard missed significant time, Atkins was hurt, Jonah missed time, XSF, whatever was up with Green, anyone else I'm missing? Those were called "excuses" too. 

In the league of next man up, I guess they were, and are.
