"Initially, Burrow was limping as he tried to walk off the field. But after a couple of steps, he went down on the turf. Burrow had a lengthy evaluation in the blue injury tent. After several minutes, he attempted to walk to the locker room. However, Burrow stopped roughly 15 feet short of the tunnel that leads beneath the stadium as he sought assistance from athletic trainers to make it back inside."
"In his place, Jake Browning led the Bengals to a comeback victory, capped by his 1-yard leap over the goal line with 18 seconds left in the game. Burrow, the No. 1 draft pick in 2020, had season-ending injuries in 2020 (knee) and 2023 (wrist) that caused him to miss a combined 13 games. He also played through a calf injury suffered in training camp ahead of the 2023 campaign."
Joe Burrow will need toe surgery and is expected to be sidelined for a minimum of three months. He was injured after a sack by Jacksonville defensive end Arik Armstead with 8:36 remaining in the second quarter and was trapped under fallen players. He initially limped, then went down and received a lengthy evaluation in the blue injury tent before attempting to walk to the locker room and requiring assistance. Burrow was ruled out, did not return, and was seen in a walking boot and on crutches after the game. Backup Jake Browning led a late comeback victory. Burrow previously missed games in 2020 and 2023 due to season-ending injuries, and the Bengals have struggled offensively in his 14 absences.
