Bengals QB Joe Burrow done for the season with torn wrist ligament

Bengals star quarterback Joe Burrow will miss the rest of the 2023 season with a torn wrist ligament.

The Cincinnati Bengals announced on Friday that Joe Burrow, who was dealing with clear wrist and hand discomfort in Thursday night’s game against the Baltimore Ravens, will miss the remainder of the 2023 season with a torn wrist ligament.

Per head coach Zac Taylor, the injury happened on a tackle by Ravens pass-rusher Jadeveon Clowney.

It’s the end of a frustrating season for Burrow, who was just starting to come back from a slow start after a preseason calf strain. Burrow had aggravated that injury in Cincinnati’s Week 2 game against the Ravens.

The Bengals have backup Jake Browning on the roster, and Browning completed eight of 14 passes for 68 yards and a touchdown against Baltimore’s top-tier defense — albeit in a 34-20 loss that put the 5-5 Bengals on the outside looking in when it came to the playoff picture.

That view obviously became more difficult to make out after this news.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will miss the remainder of the 2023 NFL season after suffering a wrist injury in 38-20 loss to Baltimore Ravens

The Ravens may have ended the Bengals playoff chances and Joe Burrow’s season in the 38-20 beatdown that took place at M&T Bank Stadium on Thursday night.

Burrow exited the matchup in the second quarter after being unable to grip the football following a sack by Ravens pass rusher Jadeveon Clowney.

Cincinnati head coach Zac Taylor told reporters following his team’s 34-20 loss that Burrow suffered the sprain during the game, and he was not aware of any previous injury.

Backup Jake Browning, who won the job in training camp, will be tasked with trying to lead the Bengals back to the playoffs. Since 2020, the Bengals are 2-5 when anyone other than Burrow has been the starting quarterback.

With Burrow in the lineup, Cincinnati is 29-21-1.
