Joe Burrow Wrist Injury: Out for the Rest of the Season
The Bengals just can’t seem to catch a break. Their leader and quarterback is ailing, which is quickly making a playoff run a distant dream. Going into week 11, the franchise is 5-5; as sources now confirm that the Joe Burrow wrist injury is seriously just as bad as fans were thinking.
Before Thursday, several interesting photos and video emerge regarding the Cincinnati QB. Joe’s wrist looks to be in some sort of wrist band, or support strap. However, during warmups and actually play; Burrow is without it. This seems to indicate that the team was aware of some discomfort, but felt Joe could continue on and play safely during the game.
However, as the Thursday Night telecast goes on, it becomes painfully clear something is seriously wrong. Burrow can be seen in pure frustration on the sideline, unable to toss or properly throw a ball. He is done.
Joe Burrow Wrist Injury: Out for the Rest of the Season
After the game Burrow talks to the press about the injury. He reveals that the play before he leaves the field, he landed on the wrist. However, it is during his very next throw attempt that he feels a “pop.” It is that moment he realizes that he is not able to continue.
Nevertheless, Joe is not letting this situation slow him down; or get the better of him. He is confident in his support system; and in himself to get back into playing form. And no one is doubting the guy; especially since he got through an ACL injury.
Mike Petraglia, a Cincy sports journalist grabbed some great quotes from the Joe Burrow presser. Mike reveals that Joe stated,
“Everything I’ve seen is that surgery will be needed…. likely surgery…. [All I can do is] Be present… try to bring energy. I can’t lead by example. That’s not where I’m at right now. I’ve got to find other ways.
I’ve been through stuff like this before. Yeah, it’s tough. But that’s the life we live. That’s football. You’re going to get injured. Things are going to happen. You’re going to have to overcome things.”
Joe is right. To continue to be great, you have to overcome adversity and challenges. We are sure that’s exactly the mentality Burrow will maintain as he heals up from his season-ending wrist ligament tear. Get well soon Joe.
