They placed rookie defensive tackle McKinnley Jackson on injured reserve, which means the third-rounder will miss at least the first four games of the season.

Unfortunate news for a defense that was planning to rely on Jackson early in the season.

The Bengals picked Jackson in the third round (97th overall) in the 2024 NFL Draft.
