Joe Burrow Back To Throwing During Off Season Training

We all know how important the quarterback position is to every team. So it was a devasting blow to the Cincinnati Bengals fans when their QB went down with an injury. However, the good news is that Joe Burrow is back to throwing during the off season training. Last season during training camp he dealt with a lingering calf injury that spilled over into the regular season. By the midway point of the season it looked like Burrow and his teammates had found their rhythm. But then disaster struck in Week 11 when he suffered a wrist injury during the game against the Baltimore Ravens. He missed the rest of the season.

However, it’s a new season and all signs point to Burrow being on the right track. He is officially back to football activities getting prepared for the beginning of team OTAs on May 28. As the Bengals entered phase two of their offseason program on May 6, Burrow could now throw to his receivers on site. And here are some comments from his teammates and QB coach from bengals.com:

Wide receiver Kwamie Lassiter: “He didn’t miss a beat … Whatever he did in the offseason worked.”

Wide receiver Andrei Iosivas: “You like the amount of power he has on it. I feel like that’s what you’re really looking for. You like to see the velocity.”

Wide receiver Trenton Irwin: “He looked like he did last year. He looked smooth. I didn’t see anything different.”

Burrow completed a one-hour workout with new quarterbacks coach Brad Kragthorpe and here is what Kragthorpe had to say:

“I think he looked as quick and as athletic as I’ve seen him look,” Kragthorpe said. “He looked like the Joe Burrow we’re used to seeing. I didn’t see any difference. I thought the ball came out of his hand well. Confidently. I’m happy where he’s at.”

Joe Burrow Back To Throwing During Off Season Training

Everyone is definitely upbeat and positive about Burrows progress. Last season Burrow threw for 10 touchdowns and only 2 interceptions during a 4-game winning streak. That’s the sort of performance the Bengals want to see in 2024. Only they want to see it for an entire season. If Burrow can avoid the injury bug then the rest of the league should be on notice.

Although the NFL hasn’t released the 2024 schedule yet, any Bengals opponents should be prepared for Burrows. He looks to be a man on a mission.
