Bengals QB Burrow questionable to return after toe injury
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow left Sunday afternoon's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in the second quarter after suffering a lower-leg injury during a sack by Jaguars defensive tackle Arik Armstead, and the team listed him as questionable to return. The incident occurred with roughly nine minutes remaining in the first half at Paycor Stadium and forced backup Jake Browning into the game.
Burrow was taken down on a play that resulted in a five-yard loss and remained on the turf, pointing to his lower left leg as trainers tended to him. He walked gingerly to the Bengals medical tent and was later escorted to the locker room after briefly limping along the sideline. The Bengals subsequently announced that Burrow had a left toe injury and was questionable to return, though reports from the field variously described the problem as a left ankle or lower-leg issue.
Before departing, Burrow was 7 of 13 for 76 yards and had thrown a four-yard touchdown pass to Ja'Marr Chase. Browning entered and completed several throws, with one account crediting him with four completions on seven attempts for 46 yards and an interception. The Jaguars took a 17-10 lead into halftime...
