Cincinnati Bengals defensive tackle D.J. Reader(Grimsley High School/Clemson) will miss the rest of the season after suffering a left quad injury in Sunday’s 27-3 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, coach Zac Taylor said Monday.
Reader, who was placed on injured reserve Monday, went down with less than nine minutes in the third quarter Sunday after he tackled Baltimore’s Gus Edwards following a 3-yard gain. Reader was carted off the field and was visibly frustrated as he went back to the locker room.
Reader was a key addition during the Bengals’ spending spree this offseason. Reader signed a four-year deal worth $53 million, which is believed to be the richest contract given to a free agent in franchise history.
Hate to hear about the injury @Djread98, but know exactly how you’re gonna attack this recovery and come back stronger than ever.
Minor setback for major comeback. You got this brother.
