Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Chidobe Awuzie announced on social media that he underwent successful knee surgery recently.
Awuzie suffered a season-ending ACL tear during that Monday night loss to the Browns. In the aftermath, word broke that he would need to wait for the swelling to subside before undergoing the procedure.

Despite the injury, Awuzie made a point to stick around the team during film sessions and support his fellow defensive backs and defense from the sidelines. Based on that, he’ll likely be back around the team sooner rather than later when his rehab process permits it.
Here’s the note Awuzie shared on Twitter:
