NFL Note - Cincinnati Bengals Eifert, Tyler

Oct 13, 2017 - 1:44 AM Tyler Eifert will undergo season-ending surgery on his back Thursday, multiple outlets reported. The Bengals made a move that reflects that decision as they placed Eifert on injured reserve Thursday. Eifert consulted with noted spine specialist Dr. Robert Watkins in Los Angeles to determine if he should have micro-disk surgery, which will sideline him for four to six months. The surgical procedure on his back will be the third for the 6-foot-6, 255-pounder.
