The Cincinnati Bengals will play the Pittsburgh Steelers Monday night at Heinz Field and on Thursday we learned that they will do so without one of their core special teams players and backup nickel cornerback.
The Bengals announced on Thursday that they have placed cornerback Darius Phillips on their Reserve/Injured list as a result of a knee injury he suffered in the team’s Week 3 loss to the Buffalo Bills. To fill Phillips’ roster spot the Bengals signed cornerback Torry McTyer off of the Kansas City Chiefs practice squad.
