Released during the match against the Ravens, Joe Burrow will have to say goodbye to 2023. As confirmed by NFL Media reporter Ian Rapoportthe quarterback suffers from a torn ligament in his wrist and will miss the rest of the season.
This is a huge blow for a Bengals team that made it to the conference finals the last two seasons, even getting a ticket to the Super Bowl during the 2021 season. Author of 15 touchdowns for 6 interceptions, Joe Burrow experienced a difficult season, he who started the exercise with an injury to his lower body.
Joe Burrow will have to wait for another comeback
This is the second time in his career that Burrow has suffered a serious injury, after that of 2020. He won the title of “comeback player” of the year in 2021, perhaps an encouraging sign for the Bengals who will turn around 2024.
The Bengals were already in a difficult position with a record of 5 wins for 5 losses, but the chances of the playoffs have just been reduced significantly. Jake Browning should start for the rest of the season, he who tried to hold his own in Baltimore without success.
Browing is an undrafted player in 2019 who began his career with the Vikings. He arrived in Cincinnati in 2021. The touchdown thrown against the Ravens was the very first of his career. Because it was quite simply his first appearance in an official match since his arrival in the league.
