There is rampant speculation that the Cincinnati Bengals are hiding the severity of Joe Burrow’s injury, a calf issue that head coach Zac Taylor isn’t that serious. But Burrow’s teammate Ja’Marr Chase has now said, multiple times, that he doesn’t want the Bengals quarterback to rush himself back and to only return when he’s 100%.
Even if he misses the first five games of the season.
Does Chase know something that we don’t, that the team doesn’t want people to know? That was speculated by Mike Florio on The Rich Eisen Show this week, pointing out that Cincinnati is not obligated to say anything about Joe Burrow’s injury until days before their first game of the season.
