Bengals Placing WR Andrei Iosivas On Injured Reserve

Taylor said Iosivas could return later this season. 

Jeremy Fowler reports that Iosivas is expected to miss 4-6 weeks and will undergo surgery on his thumb. 

Iosivas, 26, is a former sixth-round pick by the Bengals in the 2023 NFL Draft out of Princeton. He earned first-team All-Ivy League in 2022 and second-team honors in 2021. 

He’s in the final year of a four-year, $3.9 million rookie contract that included a $159,384 signing bonus. 

In 2026, Iosivas has appeared in two games and recorded three receptions on four targets for 19 yards (6.3 YPC).
