Just saw this


I guess I should have expected not having Eifert. I am hoping Ross is going to get back out there soon....haven't heard anything on him. Two big missing pieces, hopefully Ross doesn't follow in Tyler's footsteps. I'm still very excited for Ross.

Gotta get that embedding game on point, Lock. :andy:

Bengals TE Tyler Eifert expected to miss multiple weeks while recovering from back injury, per source. No back surgery needed at this time.

Another disappointment to the season. I see no reason at this point to keep him any longer than we have to. Sad to see such great talent wasted by injuries. Not his fault he's fragile, Just sad he ended up here.

Same here, expected Eifert to miss games this season anyways, it is pretty much a given with the guy.

Haven't seen much of him in the first two game either. Hopefully the last injury last season didn't destroy him forever.

Would like to see us bring him back if he can get back to his 2015 self.

I am also still very excited about Ross.

Honestly, who cares. I'm sure he'll sign with NE next year and have a monster season and play like he's indestructible. lol you can only laugh because it is likely.

[lone bengal]

Not surprised, i'm fine with letting him go next year and spending the money on the o- line in free agency (which I know is a pipe dream.)

Yep, and that truly sucks. I suspected as much, when they let is out a couple weeks ago that it was the back, in addition to the knee that was bothering him. Damaged goods. Time to cut the cord and plan on drafting another TE.

And if he can't drive with a broken back at least he can polish the fenders.

I just want you guys to do all the work for me

[*Go Cards*]

Well that is par for Eiffert's course.

[jj22]

Is it too late to trade him...

[Goalpost]

Maybe Eifert should just retire.

[*bengalfan74*]

Such a shame, he could have been up there with the best of em. Time to move on

Gresham looking pretty good for the Cards tonight

And Dak is looking more like Dook this year without a great running game carrying the offense. Even with the great OL, he's not looking so great this year with the team relying/asking more from his arm.

Eifert is done. Love the guy, but he is.

[NATI BENGALS]

Did we really offer him a contract extension?

How dumb is he for not taking it?

We dont over pay but we usually give out some nice deals.

When i heard he was an inch shorter after having a disk removed i had my doubts about him ever being back to normal.

[Tiger Teeth]

I'm shocked.

[Whatever]

Sadly, with the disk removal, it was probably wishful thinking to believe he could get back to 100%.
