CINCINNATI — The Bengals have placed tight end Ben Utecht on the injured reserve list, ending his season.
Utecht suffered a severe concussion during practice on Aug. 5, when he was taken from the field in an ambulance. The reserve hasn’t been able to practice, prompting the move on Monday.
The Bengals also waived tight end Matt Sherry with a shoulder injury. If he clears waivers on Tuesday, he’ll revert to the Bengals’ injured reserve list.
The Bengals lost starting tight end Reggie Kelly to a torn Achilles’ tendon at the start of training camp, leaving them with very little experience at the position.
