When asked specifically if Burrow is going to start against the Cardinals on Sunday, Taylor replied in the affirmative, noting that he believes that the Bengals offense can operate at a high enough level, even given the signal-caller's current condition. Burrow practiced fully last week and approached the team's Week 4 loss to the Titans without an injury designation, so unless he suffers a setback at practice this week, Burrow will be out there again this weekend, though it's possible key wideout Tee Higgins (rib) could be limited or out versus Arizona.

When asked specifically if Burrow is going to start against the Cardinals on Sunday, Taylor replied in the affirmative, noting that he believes that the Bengals offense can operate at a high enough level, even given the signal-caller's current condition. Burrow practiced fully last week and approached the team's Week 4 loss to the Titans without an injury designation, so unless he suffers a setback at practice this week, Burrow will be out there again this weekend, though it's possible key wideout Tee Higgins (rib) could be limited or out versus Arizona.
Burrow seemed to make progress throughout the week in recovering from his calf injury, as he didn't carry a designation into Sunday's game. However, that didn't translate into his performance on the field, as he failed to get the Bengals' offense moving against one of the more vulnerable pass defenses in the league. Overall, Burrow has now been held under 200 passing yards in half of his four games this season and has gone without a touchdown pass in three of four contests.
Listed as questionable ahead of the Bengals' Week 3 game against the Rams after aggravating a calf injury late in the team's Week 2 loss to the Ravens, Burrow ultimately suited up and played 100 percent of the offensive snaps in the 19-16 win over Los Angeles, completing 26 of 49 pass attempts for 259 yards, no touchdowns and one interception. Though the Bengals are facing a shorter turnaround for their Week 4 game against the Titans, Burrow nonetheless appears to be in a better spot on the health front. In addition to avoiding an injury designation for Sunday's contest, Burrow was listed as a full practice participant Wednesday through Friday.
Burrow was listed as a full participant Wednesday on the Bengals' first Week 4 injury report, but his ability to take every rep Thursday was more meaningful since Cincinnati held a traditional practice session rather than a walk-through. Though Burrow probably isn't 100 percent recovered from the right calf injury he aggravated late in the Bengals' Week 2 loss to the Ravens, the quarterback doesn't look as though he'll be in danger of missing any game action after he came out of Monday's win over the Rams no worse for the wear. He'll draw a favorable matchup this Sunday against the Titans, facing off against a defense that has been stout against the run but vulnerable against the pass (275.3 yards per game).
Burrow hasn't been his usual dynamic self this season since suffering a calf injury in the early days of training camp. He even was among the biggest question marks for Week 3 action, but he was able to suit up Monday against the Rams, completing 26 of 49 passes for 259 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in a 19-16 victory. The Bengals held a walkthrough Wednesday, so his listed activity level should be taken with a grain of salt, especially after coach Zac Taylor told Ben Baby of ESPN.com that Burrow's workload will be watched closely each day this week. With that knowledge, Burrow's status should continue to be monitored ahead of Sunday's game at Tennessee.
Burrow was able to power through his lingering calf injury in order to help Cincinnati earn its first victory of the 2023 campaign. The star quarterback was clearly not at full strength, making several errant throws and showing limited mobility in the pocket. The end result was another pedestrian fantasy line for a player who sat near the top of all passing categories over the last two seasons. On the bright side, Burrow confirmed that he did not suffer any setbacks to his calf in a post-game interview following Monday's victory. The best hope for the quarterback's fantasy managers at this point is that he continues to inch closer to full strength as the season progresses. Assuming Burrow gets through this week's practice unscathed, he should be back under center for the Bengals in a tough road matchup against the Titans next Sunday.
Burrow was officially listed as questionable for the contest after being deemed a limited participant in practice Friday and Saturday, but he'll give it a go Monday and is set to work through his right calf strain. It remains to be seen how close the Bengals' franchise signal-caller will be to 100 percent versus Los Angeles, but should Burrow suffer any in-game setbacks, Jake Browning is next in line for the team's QB snaps, with practice-squad elevation Reid Sinnett on hand in reserve.
Burrow approached the contest officially listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice Friday and Saturday, but it appears as though he will play through his strained right calf Monday. Official confirmation of the QB's Week 3 status will arrive once the Bengals inactives are posted ahead of the team's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff.
Burrow appears to be trending in the right direction for Monday Night Football, but a final word on his status may not come until closer to tonight's 8:15 p.m. ET kickoff. The star quarterback is officially listed as questionable for Week 3, but he's reportedly continued to feel better as the week has progressed, and he took first-team reps during Sunday's walk-through practice. Jake Browning would be in line to start for Cincinnati if Burrow's right calf injury doesn't react well during pre-game warmups.
