The Cincinnati Bengals announced during the third quarter of Sunday's Week 9 win against the Carolina Panthers that rookie defensive back Dax Hill is out with a right shoulder injury.
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said Monday that Hill will be "week to week" with the injury.
The Bengals were already without cornerbacks Chidobe Awuzie, Tre Flowers and Mike Hilton.
The Enquirer's Charlie Goldsmith wrote last week that Hill, the Bengals' first-round draft pick earlier this year, played out of position when he got the first opportunity of his NFL career.
Social media reactions to Hill's injury from Goldsmith and Kelsey Conway:
Zac Taylor said Dax Hill is week to week. Chris Evans is week to week with a PCL.
DJ Reader, it's optimistic it'll be sooner rather than later. Decision next Monday.
