Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor doesn’t say much of substance nowadays. At the tail end of what will likely be his second two-win season in two years, the 37-year old is just trying to stay employed for as long as he can.
Taylor did tell reporters this week that cornerback Trae Waynes—who has been on the Reserve/Injured list all season—will stay on I.R. for the remainder of the season. This was heavily speculated over the past month, but it officially means that Waynes will miss his entire first year in Cincinnati.
Waynes was only one of eight unrestricted free agents the Bengals signed off of the open market this past offseason, and he’s far from the only one to have missed an ample amount of playing time this season.
