Bengals QB Joe Burrow Leaves Game With Ankle Injury

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow suffered a significant toe and ankle injury during Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, forcing him to leave the game in the second quarter. Burrow was sacked while trying to evade defenders and limped off the field with assistance from trainers before undergoing an MRI, ruling him out for the remainder of the game. The Bengals entered the game with hopes of improving to 2-0 after a narrow Week 1 victory, but Burrow’s injury has raised concerns about his availability for upcoming games, with Jake Browning stepping in as the backup quarterback. Fans, former players, and media personalities have expressed widespread concern and prayers for Burrow’s recovery on social media. The severity of the injury remains unclear, and the Bengals are closely monitoring his condition ahead of next weekend’s matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Burrow, a former first overall draft pick and MVP candidate, has battled injuries in the past, making this latest injury particularly worrisome for the team’s playoff aspirations.
