Andrei Iosivas Could See Increased Role Against Arizona: 'All A Rookie Can Ask For'

Wide Receiver Tee Higgins is dealing with a broken rib ahead of Sunday's game, which could mean more opportunities for guys like Trenton Irwin and Andrei Iosivas to show how they can impact the offense.

Iosivas is yet to make a catch in the NFL across 21 snaps, but the rookie is staying ready.

"Playing fast doing my job, and making plays when they come to me," Iosivas said about his focus for the upcoming game.

The Princeton product was a key target in the preseason but has understandably funneled down the depth chart in the regular season. Iosivas is struggling a bit to find his footing as one of the Bengals' three-lowest-graded players by PFF on offense and special teams.

Sunday could be a welcome change of pace for his role.

"All a rookie can ask for, all anyone trying to get their first opportunity can ask for and so I'm just trying to make the most of it," Iosivas said.
