Bengals Bench QB Joe Burrow With Toe Injury During Jaguars Game

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow suffered a toe injury in their Week 2 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after being sacked by Arik Armstead, leading to his exit in the second quarter. Burrow underwent an in-stadium MRI and was seen using a scooter to avoid putting weight on his injured toe, with medical experts suggesting a turf toe injury that could sideline him for several weeks. Despite the injury, backup quarterback Jake Browning stepped in effectively, throwing two touchdowns and keeping the Bengals competitive. The Bengals faced criticism on social media after the 'Bussin' With the Boys' podcast claimed the team lacked an injury cart, which is an NFL requirement, to assist Burrow off the field. Meanwhile, the Jaguars struggled with penalties and inconsistent quarterback play from Trevor Lawrence, limiting their ability to capitalize on Burrow's absence. Overall, the Bengals have managed to maintain their performance even without Burrow on the field, but his injury raises concerns about upcoming games against several key opponents.
