Bengals' Cam Taylor-Britt: Officially placed on IR
Rotowire
Taylor-Britt was placed on the injured-reserve list Friday.
Taylor-Britt is expected to miss the remainder of the season after sustaining a foot injury in the Week 11 loss to the Steelers, so his move to IR comes as no surprise. The Nebraska product has played in eight games this season, recording 21 total tackles and five passes defensed. Marco Wilson will likely have an expanded role in Cincinnati's secondary while Taylor-Britt is sidelined.

Bengals' Cam Taylor-Britt: Likely done for the year
Rotowire
Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Taylor-Britt (foot) is expected to require surgery for a Lisfranc injury suffered during the team's loss to Pittsburgh on Sunday, Jay Morrison of SI.com reports.
Taylor-Britt was present at team facilities Monday in a walking boot and moving with the help of a knee scooter, per Morrison. Lisfranc procedures carry a multi-month recovery timeframe, so if it's confirmed that Taylor-Britt requires surgery it will effectively end his 2025 campaign, and potentially, his tenure with Cincinnati. The 2022 second-round pick is in the final year of his rookie deal, and after having opened the season as one of the Bengals' starting outside corners, inconsistent performance led to his opportunity share declining, including being a healthy scratch Week 7. That said, prior to suffering his foot injury, Taylor-Britt's involvement on defense had been trending up again.

Bengals' Cam Taylor-Britt: Out for remainder of Week 11
Rotowire
Taylor-Britt won't return to Sunday's game against Pittsburgh due to a foot injury.
Taylor-Britt was hurt late in the first half and was ruled out just after halftime. He'll finish the contest with four tackles (three solo). Josh Newton and/or DJ Ivey could be in line for more defensive snaps in Taylor-Britt's stead.
Taylor-Britt will be a healthy scratch for Thursday's game against the Steelers, Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News reports. Josh Newton will start in his place, with Marco Wilson also getting reps.
Taylor-Britt has been in and out of the doghouse under multiple defensive coordinators the last two seasons, but this is the first time he's been a healthy inactive.
Taylor-Britt (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Broncos.
Taylor-Britt upgraded from limited practice Thursday and Friday to a full session Saturday, suggesting he's moved past his hamstring injury in time to face Denver on Monday. The Nebraska product has appeared in two games this season, recording four total tackles and two passes defended. Now healthy again, he's expected to serve as one of Cincinnati's top outside corners in Week 4.
Taylor-Britt (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Vikings.
As expected, Taylor-Britt won't play in Week 3 after not practicing Thursday or Friday. DJ Turner (hamstring) has been cleared to suit up, so Marco Wilson and DJ Ivey will be candidates for increased roles across from Turner. The Bengals' secondary will have its hands full trying to slow down All-Pro WR Justin Jefferson, but he'll be catching passes for the first time in regular-season action from Carson Wentz, who's starting in place of J.J. McCarthy (ankle).
