Beast Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 https://www.nfl.com/news/bengals-qb-joe-burrow-wrist-questionable-to-return-vs-ravens Taylor says Burrow hurt his wrist during the game and is unaware of any injury may have had before. Burrow was caught wearing a brace of some sort on his right wrist/hand area getting off the team bus before the game. Burrow was not on the injury report. Something to keep an eye on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridgewaycynic2013 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Mike Brown couldn't afford a wrist brace. Joe Burrow had to buy his own, ergo, Bengals were clueless about the injury. * 🤔😁 2 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 There is almost zero chance the Bengals didn't know about his wrist before the game. If he was wearing a brace coming in Burrow wasn't exactly hiding it and I'd suspect that he has been receiving treatment from the training staff during the week to be in the best position to play. So let's toss the idea they "didn't know" right out the window. So for the season Cincinnati has pushed Burrow out there with this wrist issue on his throwing hand and that shin/calf issue from earlier in the season. It's shocking that they would both invest those millions of dollars in him and yet have almost zero regard for his long term future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoCal Deek Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I’ve often wondered why teams have to be so specific about injuries. Seems to me it just signals an unnecessary advantage to their opponents. For decades NHL teams have just listed things as upper body, etc. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Donuts and Doritos Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 NFL should be investigating why Soo many players are getting injured this year. How many QBs have gone down, how many key players. I get injuries are part of the sport, but feels like (I know not very scientific) there's more & w/ scoring down it feels like the product overall isn't as good. Of course I'm probably skewed on this view by the Bills issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low Positive Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Just got a notice that the NFL is investigating this. What's funny is that the Bengals' PR team is who posted the video of him getting off the bus with the wrist brace. If anything comes of this, they only have themselves to blame. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if those two things are related…seems like they’re letting offenses get away with a lot more holding this year to try to get the scoring up and the trenches are a lot uglier than they have to be.

H2o Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Florio had reported earlier in the week the Bengals website posted a photo that showed Burrow in a brace of some kind. Then they almost immediately took it down. Obviously they didn't take it down fast enough for people not to have already been talking about it. At the time, there had been no report of any kind of injury to Burrow's hand or wrist. That is where the problem in all of this lies, due to the effect it has on other things. Betting lines, bettors, preparation, things that could have serious repercussions if it is found that Cincy purposely did not disclose the injury.
