KDIGGZ Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 The latest as per Taylor is "it will be another few weeks added to the original he will be out several weeks." Sounds like he's missing the start of the season. Although Bengals started the last few seasons with a losing streak and they have come back from that before but we'll see.

TheWei44 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 "several weeks from when I said several weeks" is very odd phrasing. Could just as easily mean "no change in timeline" or "double the initial timeline" - Doesn't really clarify anything! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sammy Watkins' Rib Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I think it’s been close to several weeks since he first said several weeks. So we should be expecting him back in about a week? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billsfan89 Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 Not the insignificant minor injury everyone thought after a major injury was ruled out. I hope for Burrow's sake this isn't a nagging injury that hampers him all season, better they sit him out weeks 1-2 than have him try to play through it and be banged up all year because he didn't get the proper rest he needed.

That maybe the case but gotta figure part of that losing streak to begin their season may have been as they were getting up to speed. Let's say they start off decently then burrows returns but very rusty and they lose0 any momentum they had built up could be a situation that derails their season. I'm OK with that having had injuries derail last year for Bills. L Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Costa Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) I think they will put him on the PUP. Miss the first 4 games but should be 100 % by week 5. That would be the smart thing to do. As a Bills fan I hope he plays week 1 VS the Browns. They should be 3-2 after week 5 if he’s on the PUP.

Billl Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Are people really this bad at reading comprehension? There is literally zero new information from what Taylor said. When the injury originally happened, Taylor said Burrow would be out “several weeks”. Today he said that Burrow would be out for several weeks from when he said several weeks. That is no different than if he had originally said 5 weeks and then today said it would be 5 weeks from when he said it would be 5 weeks.

If Burrow’s injury was discovered to be significantly more serious than originally thought, they wouldn’t publicize it via an off-handed remark to some reporter’s question. That would be huge news, and they’d make a statement on it. It would be like Andy Reid casually mentioning that Mahomes’s ankle wasn’t quite healed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
