Bengals QB Andy Dalton going on IR with thumb injury

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton was placed on injured reserve with a thumb injury suffered in Sunday's loss to the Browns.

To take his roster spot, the team acquired quarterback Tom Savage on waivers from the San Francisco 49ers.

Dalton was injured on the fourth play of the third quarter after a snap by center Billy Price sailed over his head. Dalton ran back to recover the ball and attempted to pick it up, but the Browns recovered it. Dalton immediately went to the sideline and into the locker room with athletic trainers and did not return.
