BREAKING: Joe Burrow Set To Return From Calf Injury And Play In Week 1: “I’m Ready To Go”

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is ready to go for Week 1.

Burrow was a full participant in Wednesday’s practice, a clear sign that he’s expected to start the Cincinnati Bengals’ Week 1 game against the Cleveland Browns.

Burrow suffered a pretty serious calf strain on July 27th and at the time, many wondered if Burrow would be ready by Week 1.

“He looks good,” Taylor said. “I think it’s wise to take it day to day right now.”

Taylor said he speaks to Burrow daily and gathers feedback, and the plan is to continue monitoring where Burrow stands after each day. Taylor, however, said nearly all of their conversations exclude chatter about Burrow’s calf.

“We talk way more about Cleveland than we talk about any of this,” Taylor said. “I think it’s on (the media’s) minds. But for us, it’s focusing on the game plan. Those are 99.9% of our conversations.”
