It’s a heartbreaking day for Cincinnati Bengals fans as the team has officially ruled out quarterback Joe Burrow for the remainder of the season due to a torn ligament in his throwing wrist. The injury occurred during the Bengals’ Week 11 matchup against the Washington Football Team, and it was immediately clear that the rookie quarterback was in serious pain.
Burrow had been having an impressive rookie season, throwing for 2,688 yards and 13 touchdowns in 10 games. He had quickly become a fan favorite in Cincinnati, showing off his impressive arm strength and leadership skills. Unfortunately, his season has been cut short due to this devastating injury.
The Bengals have yet to announce who will take over as the starting quarterback in Burrow’s absence. Backup quarterback Ryan Finley is expected to get the nod, but the team could also look to sign a free agent or trade for a veteran.
This is a difficult situation for the Bengals and their fans, as they had high hopes for Burrow this season. It’s unclear how long he will be out for, but it’s likely he won’t be ready to play until next season. In the meantime, the team will have to find a way to make up for his absence and continue to compete for a playoff spot.
The entire NFL community is sending its thoughts and prayers to Joe Burrow and wishing him a speedy recovery. We hope to see him back on the field soon.
