Anderson (knee) is healthy again, John Sheeran of AZ Sports reports. Anderson has fully recovered from a torn ACL he suffered during Week 8 of last season. The 2022 fifth-round pick will now spend the remainder of the summer competing for a roster spot, where he can add value both as a reserve defender and as a special teamer.

The Bengals placed Anderson (knee) on IR on Friday. Anderson, who suffered a left knee injury in this past Sunday's win over San Francisco, will miss at least four games, meaning the soonest that he can be activated for game action is Dec. 4 against the Jaguars. In seven contests to date, the reserve safety has recorded eight tackles.

The Bengals selected Anderson in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 166th overall. Cincinnati moved up in a deal with Chicago in order to secure Anderson out of Toledo. Anderson is one of the most athletic safeties in this class. He ran a 4.36 in the 40-yard dash and a 6.64 in the three-cone drill, both of which rate above the 90th percentile at his position. He's not just an athlete, though. Anderson racked up 84 tackles as a junior in 2019 and broke up 21 passes in his college career. This is a good landing spot for him as he'll get to learn behind Jessie Bates and Vonn Bell.
