The biggest play Bengals wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher made this season might have been an interception.

But he won’t get a chance at another one in the playoffs, as the Bengals put him on injured reserve after he suffered a concussion last week against the Steelers.

Sanzenbacher caught nine passes for 105 yards this year, but had an interception on a fake punt attempt by the Steelers last week.

They filled his roster spot by promoting wide receiver Cobi Hamilton from the practice squad. He was with them in the preseason, and spent time on the Eagles practice squad also before returning to the Bengals in Week Six.

Having available receivers will be a key for the Bengals, with star A.J. Green on the sidelines Wednesday because of a concussion of his own.
