Three days after the Cincinnati Bengals placed him on injured reserve, Tyler Eifert seems to be in good spirits despite undergoing surgery.

The 2015 Pro Bowl tight end shared a video of himself walking down what appears to be a hospital hallway in a hospital gown with the help of a walker.

Eifert spent the offseason rehabbing an ankle injury suffered in the Pro Bowl last January.

He also missed time this season with a back injury.

He caught 23 passes for 394 yards and five touchdowns in eight games.
