Bengals’ Andre Smith placed on non-football injury list

The Cincinnati Bengals have placed offensive lineman Andre Smith on the non-football injury list with a calf ailment, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk.

Smith tested free agency over the offseason, but he ultimately reached a deal to return to Cincinnati after teams weren’t willing to meet his asking price. He didn’t participate in the Bengals’ offseason workouts, while he also chose to skip mandatory minicamps.

After being a significant disappointment due to high expectations following his selection in the first round by the Bengals, Smith has been able to turn things around. His 2013 campaign isn’t off to the best start, but assuming the calf injury isn’t extremely significant he should have time to recovery before much of training camp is missed.

Along with Smith, the Bengals have also placed running back Cedric Peerman (ankle) on the non-football injury list, as well as long snapper Bryce Davis (illness). The team made several other moves yesterday, moving wide receiver Tyrone Goard (finger), fullback Chris Pressley (knee), quarterback Zac Robinson (elbow) and running back Bernard Scott (knee) on the physically unable to perform list.
