The Bengals quarterback was initially projected to miss three months after surgery to fix an injury initially reported as turf toe, but Fox Sports’ Jay Glazer reported last week that it is a fully torn tendon, ligament and capsule in his foot.
“They’re saying three months, I don’t see three months being an actual timeline,” Glazer said. “I think more so [Burrow has] a chance [to return] if they make the playoffs, but only because it’s Joe Burrow. Somebody else, I’d say no. But he has that Mamba Mentality, maybe yes. It’s such a difficult injury to return from.”
If backup Jake Browning’s performance last week is any indication, the Bengals will struggle to make the playoffs and put themselves in a situation where a Burrow return is possible.
Though Browning was passable in his first game against the Jaguars, he threw a pair of interceptions and struggled throughout in a 48-10 defeat to the Vikings last week.

“We got worked today. We’ve got to sit in it,” Browning told reporters after that game. “You’ve got to go through those emotions of just being miserable.”
Browning finished the game 19-for-27 for 140 yards, throwing a late touchdown pass.
