Plagued by injury, Joe Burrow’s injury situation has a positive twist. Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been facing a calf injury since the early phase of the season, hindering his gridiron performance. After a stint of struggle, the 26-year-old sees light in the dark. In the Bengals’ last matchup, Burrow entered the gridiron against the Arizona Cardinals with a calf injury but emerged stronger than his injury situation.

The 26-year-old quarterback is the face of the Bengals’ offense. Leading from the front, Burrow played his best game of the season against the Cardinals by throwing three touchdowns. And before the Bengals’ next matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, Burrow’s bothersome injury situation is all set to vanish.

Joe Burrow’s right calf injury was a concern, but he didn’t allow the injury to work against him. The Bengals quarterback lodged his most completions and most yards in the game against the Cardinals, and the Bengals are rooting for Burrow’s same and elevated performance against the Seahawks.
