Among the Super Bowl favorites this year, the Cincinnati Bengals were delivered quite a shock on the first day of practices as QB Joe Burrow went down grabbing his lower leg after suffering a non-contact injury. Initial concern was high, but as the dust settled, it turned out not to be so bad after all.
Addressing the media just minutes after the injury occurred, head coach Zac Taylor did specify that it was a calf injury, but he could not at the time speak to the severity. WR Ja’Marr Chase told reporters that Burrow gave him an indication that he would be fine.
