Overview

  • The injured reserve designation guarantees Gesicki will miss at least four games under league rules.
  • He suffered the pectoral injury Sunday at Green Bay and left after two snaps without a target.
  • Head coach Zac Taylor had already ruled him out for Thursday against the Steelers and said the recovery will take a while.
  • Tanner Hudson remains in the concussion protocol, leaving his availability for Pittsburgh uncertain.
  • Noah Fant leads the tight ends with 18 targets, 16 receptions and 107 yards as Cincinnati seeks to end a four-game skid at Paycor Stadium.
