Tanner Hudson — Injured Reserve
Hudson suffered a torn pectoral muscle during the team's 31-24 win over Miami in Week 5, so his transition to IR comes as no surprise. In his absence, Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample and Erick All will continue to operate as the team's primary options at tight end.
Tanner Hudson — Out
Hudson will presumably need surgery to address the pec tear and is likely to be placed on injured reserve in the coming days. Though he didn't win a spot on the Bengals' initial 53-man roster coming out of the preseason, Hudson was elevated from the practice squad for two of the team's firs three games before getting signed to the roster Sept. 29. Over his four appearances with Cincinnati, the reserve tight end tallied seven catches for 33 yards and a touchdown on seven targets.
Tanner Hudson — Questionable
Hudson finished Sunday's game having caught all three of his targets for 14 yards, which included a two-yard touchdown grab late in the second quarter to give the Bengals a 21-7 halftime lead. He played a total of 27 snaps (19 on offense, eight on special teams), and although it's unclear when he picked up the injury, it's severe enough to potentially require a stint on injured reserve. Rookie seventh-rounder Jack Endries would be in line for a larger role if Hudson misses time.
Tanner Hudson — Active
Hudson was elevated from the practice squad for two of the Bengals' first three games of the regular season, accumulating three catches on as many targets for 17 yards. He'll now be a part of the team's 53-man roster moving forward and will contribute mostly on special teams and in a depth role on offense behind fellow tight ends Mike Gesicki, Drew Sample and Erick All.
