The Bengals have placed 28-year old safety Gibril Wilson on the Injured Reserve List with a torn left ACL + MCL.  Wilson played in 16 games for the Dolphins last season and he had 93 tackles, 8 passes defensed and 1 sack.  This will hurt the depth of the Bengals’ secondary but it won’t cripple it as Wilson was down a bit on the depth chart.

The Cincinnati Bengals lose Brian Leonard for a while

The Bengals will be without 26-year old RB Brian Leonard for at least half of the 2010 season due to a Lisfranc injury in his foot suffered during the Hall of Fame Game.  Leonard played in 14 games (1 start) for the Bengals last season and he carried the ball 27 times for 84 yards (3.1 ypc).  He also caught 30 passes for 217 yards (7.2 avg) last season for the Bengals.  Leonard had a knack for making big plays for the Bengals last season so they will miss him.

UPDATE:  (8/12/2010) - The Bengals have updated Leonard’s condition calling it a mid-foot sprain and not a LisFranc injury.  He will likely come back some time early during the regular season.  This is a relief for the Bengals.

The Cincinnati Bengals lose Pat Sims for the year

The Bengals have lost 24-year old DT Pat Sims for the rest of the year due to a broken right forearm.  Sims played in all 16 games during the regular season for the Bengals and he made 34 tackles, 1 tackle for a loss and he had 1/2 a sack.  This really hurts the depth of the defensive line heading into this week’s playoff rematch with the New York Jets.

The Cincinnati Bengals lose Rey Maualuga for the rest of the year

The Bengals have lost rookie inside linebacker Rey Maualuga for the rest of the season due to a fractured left ankle.  He played really well as a rookie for the Bengals this season.  Maualuga played in 15 games for the Bengals this season and he made 63 tackles, 6 tackles for a loss, forced 3 fumbles, defensed 2 passes and he had 1 sack.  He will be a player the Bengals build the defense around in the future.  Lucky for the Bengals that they still have 26-year old Rashad Jeanty around and he will repalce Maualuga in the starting line-up the rest of the year.  He has played in 14 games for the Bengals this season and he has made 12 tackles.  He has now played in 52 games in his four years with the Bengals and he has made 207 tackles, defensed 5 passes and he has forced 5 fumbles.  The Bengals’ D shouldn’t suffer much with Jeanty in the starting line-up.

The Cincinnati Bengals put Chase Coffman on I.R.

The Bengals have placed rookie TE Chase Coffman on the Injured Reserve List with bone spurs.  The Bengals took Coffman in the third round out of Missouri with the thought that he could fill the black hole they have had at TE for a couple of years now.  But, he has been a complete bust so far as he was not active for ONE game in his rookie year.
