Tyler Eifert injured in Cincinnati Bengals win

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Tyler Eifert missed the end of the team's win over the St Louis Rams after suffering a stinger.

The 25-year-old, who leads the NFL with 12 touchdowns this season, was diagnosed with the nerve pinch injury after attempting to recover a fumble by running back Giovani Bernard in the third quarter.

According to Fox Sports, Eifert went for an X-ray after leaving the game, but does not expect that the injury will cause him to miss playing time.

The Bengals sit at the top of the AFC North with a 9-2 record following the win over the Rams.
