He will give us 10 games we just need to go 10 -0 or 9-1 in those games if he isn't available for post season hope Burton is out of the dog house by then.

"I just drank water," Burrow said with a chuckle.

But after he was spotted flexing his wrist throughout the team's upset defeat Sunday, Burrow maintained the wrist felt great, and it was "absolutely not" affecting his throwing.

"It feels better this week than it did last week, than it did the week before, so it's continually getting better," Burrow said.

Burrow downplayed the significance or that the wrist was preventing him from making downfield throws.

"That's part of ligament injuries," Burrow said. "If you don't move it, you're going to lose it, so I'm always moving it around, keeping it loose, keeping my mobility the way it's supposed to be, so it's going to continue to happen." "

I tore a ligament in my finger 15 years ago. I was told to flex my finger just like Burrow flexed his wrist for rehab. It's still a bit stiff because I stopped caring to flex my finger once it stopped inhibiting my daily life.

Sometimes I still flex previously injured finger, but I never stick to a routine because the slight stiffness doesn't affect me at all. It's just there. I could rebuild the full strength of my index finger but I don't care. Burrow's wrist is probably fine too. He's just doing a better job of sticking to his routine than I did even though he probably doesn't have to at this point. 

Joe flexing his wrist is also habit at this point. He probably isn't even noticing he is doing it anymore

He said the other day it's something he does all the time just to keep it loose. 

Higgins, Jenkins, and Mims are all being listed as doubtful

The Chiefs are healthy. Hollywood Brown who was already expected to miss the game was placed on IR today

Well, doubtful means 25% chance of playing. Which means 1 minus 0.75x0.75x.75 of one of them playing or 58%. Let's hope that 58% is Higgins.

Higgins is why the club isn't inking a huge contract to Chase yet. Higgin's wanted a lot of money, looks like the franchise tag was the best way to go here in hindsight. But, I don't blame them with his injury history. All the pay Tee talk was emotional from fans WHO DONT write the checks.
