The Cincinnati Bengals today have signed Xavier Su’a-Filo to the practice squad.
Su’a-Filo was released from the active roster on Wednesday, just a day after he was activated off the Reserve/Injured list. Su’a-Filo’s release was to make room for the addition of defensive tackle Zach Kerr.
An eight-year veteran, Su’a-Filo was the team’s starting right guard for the first two weeks of the regular season. He suffered a knee injury in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, which landed him on I.R. for the majority of the regular season.
Su’a-Filo’s injury paved the way for rookie Jackson Carman and eventually second-year player Hakeem Adeniji to start at right guard for the remainder of the season and into the playoffs.
