Cincinnati, OH (SportsNetwork.com) – The Cincinnati Bengals placed wide receiver Marvin Jones on injured reserve Tuesday, ending his season.

Jones missed the first three games with a foot injury before being sidelined with an ankle injury in practice on Sept. 29.

The third-year wideout posted 51 receptions for 712 yards and 10 touchdowns last season.

The Bengals signed free-agent wide receiver Greg Little to replace him. Little totaled 155 receptions for 1,821 yards and eight scores during his three-year stay with Cleveland from 2011-13.

The team also waived linebacker Khairi Fortt, inked wide receiver Cobi Hamilton to the practice squad and released wide receiver Colin Lockett from the practice squad.
