Cincinnati Bengals receiver Ja'Marr Chase clarified earlier remarks about quarterback Joe Burrow and reiterated that he doesn't want his star teammate to rush back from a calf injury before he's healthy enough to return.
Chase told NFL Network on Friday that he didn't want Burrow to play Week 1 of the regular season against the Cleveland Browns.
"I 100 percent mean that. I just want (Joe Burrow) to be 100 percent healthy to play," Chase told reporters Sunday. "I don't want him rushing nothing. I don't want people in his ear telling him to play at a certain time.
