Joe Burrow Fully Participates in Wednesday’s Practice
Joe Burrow is making significant strides in his recovery and is on track for an earlier return to the field. The quarterback fully participated in Wednesday’s practice, following head coach Zac Taylor’s update about his progression to 11-on-11 drills. This marks a positive shift after Burrow was limited in practice last week due to surgery for torn ligaments in his toe.
Burrow’s Potential Return Timeline
Burrow has been targeting the Thanksgiving night game against the Ravens as his return, but his full participation in practice raises hopes for his availability in an upcoming game against the Patriots. This development could significantly impact the Cincinnati Bengals’ performance in the coming weeks.
