The NFL season is a battle of attrition, and injuries are starting to mount for the Cincinnati Bengals. Fortunately, they have done a good job of building depth and got some strong performances out of their backups this weekend.
The linebacker group has been hit hard by injuries. Logan Wilson was having a phenomenal season, prior to his injury. With Akeem Davis-Gaither already hurt, Joe Bachie got the nod in place of Wilson. He did some nice things against Denver, but then the injury bug struck again, and Bachie left the field with a torn ACL.
