During the Thursday Night Football loss, Burrow wore a compression sleeve but denied having experienced the injury before the game. He explained to reporters that it was a completely new injury, unrelated to anything prior. Despite appearing to be in pain on his final play, a touchdown pass to Joe Mixon, Burrow was ruled out just before halftime, though he wasn’t listed on the Bengals’ injury report.
The former No. 1 overall pick had thrown for 2,309 yards, 15 touchdowns, and six interceptions, leading the Bengals to a 5-4 record prior to his injury. Following Burrow’s injury, the NFL investigated the Bengals’ decision not to include him on their injury report.
