Joe Burrow on injury watch after concerning report from Bengals practice

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow may be placed on injury watch after a report indicating he was limited during Wednesday's practice. Jeremy Rauch of FOX 19 News stated that Burrow was "very limited" and "not really throwing," adding that he appeared to be wearing a brace on his throwing shoulder. It is believed that Burrow sustained a hard hit to his throwing shoulder during the Bengals' 33-27 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

One can only speculate if this incident has caused any lingering issues. Burrow is expected to address the media following practice, which should provide more information on his status. The Bengals will release their first injury report of the week later in the day, confirming whether Burrow is dealing with an injury or if this is just a rest day.

Joe Burrow has faced several injury setbacks throughout his NFL career, including missing six games in 2020, seven games in 2023, and nine games in 2025 due to various injuries. He tore multiple knee ligaments in 2020, and has also dealt with wrist and toe injuries throughout his career.
