Bengals Place Riley Reiff on Injured Reserve, Chidobe Awuzie Lands on COVID-19 Reserve List

Cincinnati could be without two key starters against Denver.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals placed starting right tackle Riley Reiff on injured reserve on Thursday afternoon. 

The veteran suffered an ankle injury in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. Reiff will miss at least the next three games. 

They also put starting cornerback Chidobe Awuzie on the NFL's COVID-19 reserve list. It's the second time he's made the list this season. 

He has to have back-to-back negative tests to come off of the list.

Look for Isaiah Prince to start in Reiff's spot against the Broncos. If Awuzie is out, then the Bengals will likely turn to Trae Waynes, who could come off of injured reserve this week.
