Cincy Jungle • • sports
Key Points:
- Joe Burrow played in Week 2 despite a minor back injury and led the Cincinnati Bengals to a 20-6 victory over the Houston Texans, completing 20 of 31 passes for 207 yards and two touchdowns in a game-manager role.
- Bengals head coach Zac Taylor reported that Burrow came out of the game in good condition with no setbacks, although he was sacked five times during the matchup.
- Burrow’s practice workload remains uncertain this week, as Taylor indicated he might have limited participation, keeping him questionable on the injury report again.
- The team’s ‘questionable’ designation for Burrow was largely procedural, as he was never truly at risk of missing Week 2, given the NFL’s injury reporting rules.
- Bengals fans can be optimistic about Burrow’s health as the team prepares for a Week 3 road game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
