One NFL coach fears for Joe Burrow's long-term durability after injuries once again limited the Cincinnati Bengals quarterback in 2023.

"You love everything about him, but at some point, physically, his body is going to fail," the coach said to The Athletic's Mike Sando.

Burrow tore his left ACL and MCL as a rookie in 2020. Between 2021 and 2022, he missed just two starts but dislocated his right pinky finger and suffered a knee sprain in Super Bowl LVI. Then came the torn wrist ligament that ended his 2023 campaign after 10 games after he battled through a calf strain.
