Joe Burrow On Pace To Be Ready For Next Season
4 years agoCincinnati Bengals rookie quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) said in a video conference on Tuesday that he is currently on pace to be ready for the start of the 2021 regular season. The impressive rookie tore his ACL and MCL in late November but remains on track six weeks after undergoing surgery. Burrow said he'll start running on an assisted treadmill in roughly six weeks. The former LSU star is on track currently, but any slight setback along the way would put him in danger of missing the start of next season. The 24-year-old looked to be the answer under center before his injury, finishing with 2,688 passing yards, 13 touchdowns and five interceptions while adding 142 yards and three touchdowns on the ground. Burrow has QB1 upside, but because of the risk involved, he should be considered a QB2 with upside for fantasy managers next season in redraft leagues.
