During the Cincinnati Bengals’ NFL Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins at Hard Rock Stadium, linebacker Swayze Bozeman suffered an injury to his right arm. The team declared him out of the game during the third quarter, adding to the defensive challenges. Bozeman, who was picked up by the Bengals on waivers from the New York Giants in May, has been a valuable contributor over the past two seasons, appearing in 12 games including the postseason. Before joining the Giants last season, he started his NFL journey with the Kansas City Chiefs as a college free agent in 2024, where he notched a pair of special-teams tackles in Super Bowl 59. A product of Southern Mississippi, Bozeman’s college career spanned five seasons. The Bengals secured the win despite the setback, but the loss of Bozeman marks a tough moment for the team’s defensive lineup.
