According to the team’s estimated practice report released on Monday, Andy Dalton suffered a back injury in Sunday’s loss to the Bengals in New Orleans.
This team continues to take hits. After losing to the Bengals 26-30, and after playing without receivers Michael Thomas, Jarvis Landry, and Chris Olive, the offence has suffered yet another setback as quarterback Andy Dalton has reportedly sustained a back injury, per Nick Underhill of New Orleans Football. Despite being injured, Dalton completed the entire game.
Jameis Winston was active for the first time in two weeks following a back injury he sustained earlier in the season. After the game, head coach Dennis Allen refused to reveal who would start at quarterback for the team’s Thursday night game against the Arizona Cardinals in the desert. Both Dalton and Winston were listed as limited participants on the injury report for Monday.
