With the fact that the Bengals had possible knowledge of this injury, it wasn't reported, and they trotted him out there and he ends up making it worse, being lost for the season, should be interesting (as to what the league might do).
Also, for Bengals fans, with Broadway Joe being injury prone (2 seasons on IR) do you feel his contract extension was the "worst signing in history?" (please detect the sarcasm)
Sarcasm aside, I am concerned with his injury history. 4th season, second which he wont finish, and third impacted by injury (counting the appendectomy which I think took him a bit to recover from early on last season) I cant remember for certain but I think the offseason/training camp his second year was impacted by the recovering knee. So 2-3 training camps impacted which keep equating to slow starts to the season. Would it be too much to have a healthy season from start to finish? I'm not questioning his ability or leadership, he's so fun to watch when he's on. But can we string together some good health here for a change?
Everyone on Bengals subreddit is saying tank, draft well, replace the oline coach, and be ready for next year. Seems like kind of a tall ask for Burrow to actually be healthy next year. I'm sick of tanking. They had to tank in 2019 to get Burrow, then tank in 2020 when he got hurt, now might as well tank this year. Three tank jobs in five years.
But, I am all for getting Brock Bowers. Idk that he'll be there whenever they select, but getting him would take some sting away.
