Joe Burrow injured his calf weeks ago, and the Bengals have provided very little information. There's no reason to worry about his recovery timeline — yet.
The poor old calf, a section of the athletic anatomy no one talks about until something goes wrong. In Burrow's case, it is now forced to carry the burden of all thoseOn July 27, Burrow pulled up lame while undertaking a scrambling drill during training camp and was carted from the field.
"Several weeks," Taylor told reporters with complete accuracy and zero helpfulness last Friday,"Is several weeks."Burrow's health is the Bengals' business and Burrow's. But whenever a team keeps things so coy, it sends the speculation and rumor mill into overdrive — and even more so when it involves such a high-profile and pivotal player as Burrow.
But he chose to do it in public, knowing full well how it would be seen and shared and commented upon. The message seemed to be very clear; that there is no sense of disaster, that things are moving forward smoothly. A kind of"hey, look at this, there's nothing to see here." Asked whether the sight was a sign of progress, the coach said:"No. I think things are good, and he's progressing as he should."The Bengals are well aware that perhaps no player in the entire league is more closely linked with his team's likelihood of success than Burrow with Cincinnati.
Burrow is a long-term investment, which is also why there won't be, and shouldn't be, any chances taken with his health for the sale of a little extra action at the beginning of a long campaign."I just want him to be 100 percent healthy to play," Chase told reporters."I don't want him rushing nothing, I don't want people in his ear telling him to play at a certain time. I just want him to be healthy.
