Eifert, who appeared poised to return to action after missing the start of the season with an ankle injury, suffered a back injury at practice Monday that clouds his Week 5 status, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Analysis:
Eifert missed practice Wednesday as a result, and per the Bengals' official site, it's unclear at this time if his new injury issue is a day-to-day matter, or something that could linger. The tight end reportedly tweaked his back Monday "while running a route in what was apparently a non-contact injury."
