I have gone through a handful of plays from the Titans game to do these calculations. Last year, Burrow's fastest pass that I found was a 56 MPH throw over the middle. This is pretty close to what some other sources have measured him, including this old pally post from predraft and this article that is unfortunately now paywalled. The article measures Burrow at 56 MPH. You can use the Wayback Machine to get around the paywall if you really want to read it.
Anyways, Burrow threw several passes yesterday clocking in between 52-54 MPH. They have plenty of velocity. My guess is going to be that the injury is affecting him mentally and he may be compensating with a mechanical change which is affecting his accuracy.
I don't think speed matters here is what matters his overall play after 4 games 2 tds less than 200 yards a game under 70% ranking , he is playing bad but does not seem himself but everyone it seems think he good enough to play
