Joe Burrow

Joe Burrow is back to participating in football activities after having season-ending surgery on his right wrist in November 2023. He missed the final seven games of the 2023-2024 with this injury.

Fantasy Impact

Burrow practicing again has to be a relief to all Bengals fans everywhere. The 27-year-old quarterback has faced injury-riddled seasons, but when healthy, he has been an MVP-level player and has shown that he can support two top-12 wide receivers in Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. If he can stay healthy, Burrow will look to lead his team back to Super Bowl contention.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow is expected to be cleared from his wrist injury by mid-May.

Fantasy Impact

Burrow suffered a torn wrist ligament in his throwing hand last season that required season-ending surgery. Burrow shared that he expects to be cleared for full contact in May and then he will begin focusing on returning for the Bengals’ organized team activities.

The Bengals placed QB Joe Burrow on Injured Reserve with a right wrist injury.

Fantasy Impact

Burrow was already out for the season and now it is official. It will be Jake Browning undercenter for the Bengals the rest of this season with AJ McCarron also elevated to the active roster.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow will miss the remainder of the season with a torn ligament in his wrist.

Fantasy Impact

Bengals’ head coach Zac Taylor shared Friday that Burrow will require surgery for the torn ligament and the injury likely occurred on the play before he exited the game Thursday. Fantasy managers should downgrade the Bengals’ pass catchers moving forward, as Burrow’s absence will impact the efficiency of the offense moving forward. Jake Browning is expected to serve as the Bengals’ starting quarterback moving forward.

Bengals QB Joe Burrow has officially been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the Ravens in Baltimore after leaving late in the first half with a right wrist injury. Jake Browning is in at QB.

Fantasy Impact

We don't yet have the results of Burrow's X-rays, but he was in obvious pain on the sideline and could not complete practice throws while attempting to return to the game. The Bengals already had their bye week in Week 7, but they have 10 days before they face the Steelers at home in Week 12. If Burrow has to miss time, Browning would presumably start in his absence.
