How many are tired of ......

It really is a tough spot. AJ has been amazing for this team. When healthy, he's been very productive. He's always been a team player and seems to be a great person. All you can do is hope for the best. I had hoped that when they tagged him that maybe they could reach a short 2-3 year agreement to bring down his cap hit. I would definitely love to see AJ retire as a Bengal. Besides being hit hard with the injury bug, he's everything you want out of a player.

If he does stay healthy and plays this season, I still wouldn't be opposed to bringing him back for another season or two. A player of his talent and ability openly stating multiple times that he wants to spend his entire career with your organization isn't common. Especially when the organization in question is the Cincinnati Bengals. We've watched too many talented players force their way out of town in the Mike Brown Era.

It would be nice to see him practice some. I understand he's supremely talented and knows the playbook, but getting in reps with Burrow would be good for both of them. I don't care if he only practices 3 days a week. He needs to be on the practice field with his teammates. A healthy AJ would be great for us this season, but I won't be surprised if another season is cut short by injuries.
