Overview

  • Burrow exited in the second quarter after a sack by Jaguars lineman Arik Armstead and was ruled out following an on-site MRI.
  • FOX19’s Jeremy Rauch, echoed by NFL Network, reports turf toe with torn ligaments and an expectation he will miss several weeks.
  • He was seen avoiding weight on the left foot, using a one-legged scooter during the game and later a walking boot and crutches, per reports.
  • Backup Jake Browning finished 21-of-32 for 241 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions and led a 92-yard winning drive in a 31-27 victory.
  • The injury adds to Burrow’s ACL (2020) and wrist (2023) history and comes ahead of a difficult slate against the Vikings, Broncos, Lions and Packers.
