Bengals place LB Malik Jefferson on IR, sign LB Chris Worley

The Bengals also added Chris Cooper to the practice squad.

The Bengals have made three roster moves, the biggest of which being third-round pick Malik Jefferson going in injured reserve.

Taking his spot on the 53-man roster will be linebacker Chris Worley, who was on the Bengals’ practice squad. Taking Worley’s spot on the practice squad is defensive back Chris Cooper.

Jefferson, a rookie out of the University of Texas, suffered a foot injury in Sunday’s game against the Oakland Raiders. He was the second of two third-round Bengals draft picks this year. He played in 12 games this season and had three tackles on defense and seven tackles on special teams.

Worley, also a rookie, has spent the entire season on the Bengals’ practice squad. He signed with the team this year as a college free agent out of Ohio State and was added to the practice squad on Sept. 2 after being waived on final cuts.

Cooper originally signed with the Indianapolis Colts as a college free agent out of Stony Brook this year. The Colts waived him on final cuts. He has not been with an NFL team this season.
