Joe Burrow Back On The Field
Last night, Joe Burrow surprised everyone by showing up for the game. It was not expected that he’d be back on the field in any capacity, whether it was him helping out or not, and sure enough, him and his interesting haircut showed up. Looking a little emo there, Joe…
Joe was seen with a coaches headset, meaning he was assisting with some of the play calling and overall game flow. He was also seen in some teammates faces, coaching and giving praise where he could.
When Is He Expected Back?
Rapoport mentioned that Joe Burrow’s current recovery has gone better than initially expected, and he’s well on pace to be back in the middle of December. That is what we all heard initially about Burrow but it was never confirmed by anybody, especially the Bengals. Realistically folks, this still hasn’t been confirmed by the Bengals, but the fact that Joe is back on the sidelines speaks volumes to me. Yes, of course, in a walking boot as he should be, but several players have eluded to the fact that he’s been in the building quite a bit as well rehabbing.
