Cincinnati Bengals place former Alabama prep standout on injured reserve

The Cincinnati Bengals recently placed Cam Taylor-Britt, a standout cornerback and former Alabama high school star, on injured reserve due to an ankle injury. Taylor-Britt, who attended Park Crossing High School in Montgomery, Alabama, had been a key defensive player for the Bengals this season. Despite missing several games, he recorded four interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown, demonstrating his impact on the team’s defense.

Taylor-Britt was selected in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft after transitioning from quarterback to cornerback during his college career at Nebraska. His absence is a setback for the Bengals as they continue their push for the AFC playoffs. At the time of his placement on injured reserve, the team was contending for one of the final playoff spots with a competitive 8-7 record [oai_citation:2,Former Alabama prep QB ready to play again for Bengals](https://mentonealabama.org/former-alabama-prep-qb-ready-to-play-again-for-bengals/) [oai_citation:1,2024 Cincinnati Bengals season – Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Cincinnati_Bengals_season).
