The diagnosis is a significant loss for Cincinnati's tight end room. Hudson had grown into a reliable pass-catching option for the Bengals, and his absence removes a trusted target from the offense as the team works through its schedule.
The Bengals will now lean on the rest of their tight end group to absorb Hudson's snaps. The injury is the latest on a Cincinnati roster that has already dealt with its share of attrition this season, and the team is expected to fill the void from within while Hudson begins his recovery.
