Bengals' Iosivas to IR with torn thumb ligament

Cincinnati Bengals receiver Andrei Iosivas will be placed on injured reserve after suffering a torn ligament in his thumb, head coach Zac Taylor announced Wednesday.

Head coach Zac Taylor confirmed that Iosivas underwent thumb surgery on Wednesday. "It'll be a weeks issue — it's not a season-long issue," Taylor said. "But it will definitely be the IR window plus maybe a little bit more."

The fourth-year receiver started each of the first two games for Cincinnati, playing 57 percent of the club's offensive snaps. He's caught three passes for 19 yards this season and has 87 career receptions for 1,049 yards with 12 touchdowns in 52 games. amunra.help
