He will be ready for the opener, no reason to play him until the real games after this scare.

So BodyArmor causes calf strains?

Achilles injuries are pretty easy to diagnose with an on field test.

Calf injuries can be tricky.

yeah and he didn't grab the back of his leg is another good sign

Just saw a picture in our group chat of him rolling off the field on a cart and giving the thumbs up, so I think (hope) we're in the clear.

Per Chris Renkel

Speaking to players in the Locker Room no one seems overly concerned about Burrow injury.

OL Ted Karras said his gut feeling is ‘’Joe Will be fine’’

Ja’Marr Chase said Burrow gave him a nod and gave him a ‘’I’ll be fine’’ look

With modern medicine (electro-stimulation, etc) they are MUCH more manageable than they used to be.

Soooooo..... who still wants to play starters in the preseason????

That's great news. 

There should be some sort of law that this is against.

It is what it is.. but I don't want the Bengals to lay a turd in game 1 or 2 against division opponents because Joe can't see the field again during the preseason.

Injuries happen bro! You can't coach or play scared.

If Burrow is fully healthy then he should get some snaps in preseason. So he is ready for week 1.

Yeah, obviously he has to practice, but I don't want him anywhere near the field in the preseason. Our season can be over just this quick

Ideally you'd want to avoid another slow start, but it didn't really hurt us last year unless we want to go all the way and say that not getting the #1 seed cost us another trip to the SB.

He may have injured that calf jumping up and down with excitement when he saw Herbert's contract...???

We need to go talk to that bastard Murphy.

It wasn't the no training camp or lack of preseason that caused the slow start last year. It was the loss of 25 pounds of muscle he suffered after his surgery.

*Looks for Tom Brady's number, finds Matt Ryan's instead.....*
