Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow went full speed in practice Wednesday after missing the preseason with a calf injury.
"I'm in a good spot," Burrow said Wednesday in his first comments to reporters since he was injured July 27."I'm ready to go. We're going to see how these next couple of days play out because you never know with these things, but I'm expecting to play."
The 26-year-old Pro Bowler hobbled on one leg and then went to the ground while scrambling out of the pocket on July 27. He rode off the field in a medical cart. He finally returned to practice a week ago after missing more than a month.ADVERTISEMENT Camp was cut short in Burrow's rookie year of 2020 because of the pandemic. He went into camp in 2021 still rehabbing from major surgery on his left knee. He was stricken with appendicitis at the start of camp in 2022."He maybe hasn't gotten all the physical reps, but he's gotten the mental reps," Taylor said."You know, he's in every meeting talking through every rep as camp has gone on. He's locked in.
