Andrei Iosivas headed to IR with torn ligament in thumb

The Bengals will be without one of their key offensive players for some time.

The Cincinnati Bengals have placed receiver Andrei Iosivas on injured reserve due to a torn ligament in his thumb, according to Yahoo Sports. Head coach Zac Taylor announced that Iosivas underwent surgery and that the injury is expected to sideline him for a few weeks, though it is not projected to be season-ending. Iosivas, who started all of the Bengals' first two games this season, has made a modest impact so far with three catches for 19 yards.

His career statistics include 87 receptions for 1,049 yards and 12 touchdowns across 52 games and 20 starts.
