Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said Tuesday his left knee is at about 85 percent as he recovers from the injury that ended his rookie season, per Tyler Dragon of the Enquirer.
Burrow suffered a torn ACL and MCL plus other structural issues Nov. 22 and had surgery Dec. 2, with an estimated recovery time of eight to nine months. The 24-year-old said Tuesday he hopes to be cleared after nine months, which would put him on track to play by Week 1.
Even if he isn't cleared by training camp, he said he could take part in practices.
