The Cincinnati Bengals today have placed offensive guard Xavier Su’a-Filo on the Reserve/Injured list. In a corresponding move, they’ve activated safety Ricardo Allen from I.R.
Su’a-Filo was the Bengals’ starting right guard for the first two weeks of the season before suffering a knee injury in Week 2. He has been recovering ever since, and this gives him a few more weeks to continue that process while not counting against the roster. The team expects him to come off of I.R. sometime after three weeks.
Rookie Jackson Carman took Su’a-Filo’s spot in Week 3 and will continue to start in his place until further notice.
