Bengals' Nick Bowers: Earns future deal
The Bengals signed Bowers to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.
Bowers spent the entire regular season on the Bengals' practice squad. He was elevated for the first time during Cincinnati's divisional-round win over Buffalo, but he didn't play any snaps.

Nick Bowers: Moves back to practice squad
Bowers reverted to the Bengals' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Bowers has spent the entire season on the practice squad and was elevated for the first time ahead of Sunday's divisional-round win over Buffalo. The 26-year-old tight end ultimately was ruled inactive, and he's unlikely to see any action in this coming Sunday's AFC Championship Game at Kansas City, barring any injuries to the tight ends on Cincinnati's active roster. Bowers still has yet to record a catch in his career.

The Raiders placed Bowers (neck) on injured reserve Saturday.
Bowers didn't practice at all this week and had previously been ruled out for Week 7, but he will now be sidelined for at least three weeks with his move to IR.

Raiders' Nick Bowers: Won't play Week 7
Bowers (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Eagles, Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com reports.
Bowers didn't practice at all this week, so his status for Sunday shouldn't come as a surprise. The 25-year-old tight end has played mainly special teams during the two contests he has been active, so his absence shouldn't affect the Raiders' offensive rotations.
