Shortly before the start of the 2010 regular season, reports emerged that Bengals defensive end Antwan Odom had tested positive for violation of the league’s steroids policy. Appeals allowed him to play through October 10. The suspension -- and an injury -- will keep him from playing again this year beyond it.

The Bengals have placed Odom on injured reserve, due to a wrist injury that he suffered on October 10.

To fill his roster spot, the Bengals have brought back defensive end Victor Adeyanju, who spent six days with the Bengals last month.
