CINCINNATI -- Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow laughed, raised his eyebrows and cracked a smile about the most harrowing topic in Cincinnati.

Online sleuths wondered just how his surgically repaired wrist felt after broadcast cameras captured him handling a water bottle in an unorthodox manner in the team's Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. Burrow was oblivious to the discourse.

"I just drank water," Burrow said with a chuckle.

But after he was spotted flexing his wrist throughout the team's upset defeat last Sunday, Burrow maintained that the wrist felt great, and it was "absolutely not" affecting his throwing.
