Cincinnati Bengals’ Mike Gesicki Suffers Pectoral Injury Against Green Bay Packers

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki suffered a pectoral injury during Sunday’s game against the Green Bay Packers. The incident happened with 14:09 left in the second quarter when Gesicki attempted to block Packers linebacker Edgerrin Cooper.

Details of the Injury

While trying to block on a run play, Gesicki was bypassed by Cooper and immediately clutched his chest. He then exited the field to seek medical evaluation in the team’s blue tent. Following the examination, Gesicki was ruled out for the remainder of the game.

Bengals’ Offensive Struggles

Prior to this game, Gesicki had recorded eight catches for 61 yards across five games. Cincinnati’s offense has faced challenges throughout the season, even before quarterback Joe Burrow’s injury.

Burrow was placed on injured reserve after suffering a turf toe injury in Week 2. In his absence, Joe Flacco started his first game for the Bengals after being traded from the Cleveland Browns earlier in the week.

Game Performance

• Cincinnati struggled, securing only one first down in its first four drives against the Packers.
• The offensive woes continued despite the change at quarterback.
