The Cincinnati Bengals have been dealing with a lot of injuries this season, and the latest one to hit the team is quarterback Joe Burrow. Burrow suffered a calf injury in Week 11 against the Washington Football Team, and it appears that he is still feeling the lingering effects of the injury.
Bengals head coach Zac Taylor confirmed on Wednesday that Burrow is still day to day with the injury. Taylor said that Burrow is still dealing with some soreness and tightness in his calf, and he is hopeful that the quarterback will be able to return soon.
Burrow has been one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL this season, and his absence has been felt by the Bengals. Without him, the team has struggled to move the ball and score points. Backup quarterback Ryan Finley has been serviceable in relief, but he doesn’t have the same level of talent as Burrow.
The Bengals are currently 3-7-1 and are in last place in the AFC North. They have a tough schedule ahead of them, and they need their star quarterback back if they want to have any chance of making a playoff run.
Burrow’s injury is a major concern for the Bengals, and they will be monitoring his progress closely. It’s unclear when he will be able to return to action, but the team is hoping it will be sooner rather than later. Until then, Finley will continue to lead the offense and try to keep the Bengals in contention.
