cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is progressing in his recovery from toe surgery and could return to the field before the end of November, the team announced. Burrow’s 21-day practice window opened November 10th, initiating a timeline for his return from Injured Reserve.
Despite the Bengals’ 3-7 record, Burrow is determined to rejoin the team as soon as he is medically cleared. His initial target is the Thanksgiving Day game against the Baltimore Ravens. If he isn’t ready by then, the team has until the Week 14 matchup against the Buffalo Bills to activate him. Burrow underwent surgery in September to repair a torn ligament in his right wrist, sidelining him for a minimum of three months.
According to reports, Burrow has been actively participating in individual drills and is increasing his workload as he nears full recovery. His return would provide a significant boost to a Bengals offense that has struggled in his absence, currently averaging 189 passing yards and 2 touchdowns per game with 0 interceptions. The team is closely monitoring his progress to ensure he doesn’t re-aggravate the injury.
