Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow suffered a season-ending wrist injury last year on his throwing arm. Naturally, he was going to have a lot of eyes on that wrist as he made his return this week. But he didn’t seem to realize until yesterday just how much scrutiny it would receive. Little did he know every micromovement he would make would come up for public debate—by people with no expertise.
Evidently, a video went viral showing Burrow flexing his wrist and moving it awkwardly while picking up a water bottle. Reporters finally asked him about it yesterday, which he insists was the first he learned of it.
