Injury for Joe Burrow Forces Bengals QB Off the Sidelines Against the Ravens

Things have turned upside down in the M&T Bank Stadium as the Cincinnati Bengals and the Baltimore Ravens are battling it out in a divisional rivalry. The game has come with a lot of casualties and it’s not even half-time. First, it was Mark Andrews, who has been ruled out of the game, then there was an instance where there was something wrong with Lamar Jackson, but he bounced back. Now, Joe Burrow has taken a hit.

The first team in the AFC North is going head-to-head with the last team in the AFC North. Things couldn’t get more heated up between the two teams. The game has left a bitter taste in both teams’ mouths as Lamar Jackson was seen visibly upset when Mark Andrews got injured. With Burrow out, the Bengals are in jeopardy.

Joe Burrow takes one for the team

Joe Burrow has had a challenging game against the Ravens. While the QB has held his own against the Ravens’ defense, the TD drive has left him in a precarious position. Following the TD pass to Mixon, the broadcast revealed Burrow clutching his hands in agony. After a trip to the pitch side tent and back, Burrow rushes to the tunnel after a shake of the head.

Apparently, Burrow has taken a hit on his right hand and was rushed to the locker room. He was seen trying to throw the ball on the sidelines but fell to the ground in pain. Burrow has been taken to the X-ray room and it was revealed that he had an injury in the right wrist. The QB1 is ruled out of the game following the injury.

With one QB with a partially injured leg and the other one possibly out for the game, things have taken a twisted turn early on.

The banged-up AFC teams

The tight end being out for the game has shaken the Ravens to their core, and their offense is not the same as when the game started. For now, the Ravens are at a standstill and making small strides. Both teams are stacking up injuries, and BJ Hill got hit, but he is okay now. If the Bengals lose this game, they might be out for the whole season. If Joe Burrow doesn’t get well soon, the Bengals can kiss goodbye to the season.

The Bengals have some tough matchups and cannot afford to lose anymore. The Ravens still have some leverage over the Cincinnati team. The Bengals have the Jaguars, Steelers, Browns, Chiefs, and the Vikings on their schedule ahead. Tough matches, indeed. Burrow is out of the Ravens game now; hopefully, he can quickly recover ahead of these tough matchups.

With both teams having taken a beating, who do you think will come out victorious? Let us know down below.
