It wouldn't surprise me if JB is getting some pressure from upper management to play through the injury.

I can hear Mike Brown now, "Now Joe, we're paying you a lot of money to be quarterback of the Bengals and we have certain expectations."

Bengals management does not like to pay for fired coaches.  I would also think that they do not like to pay players not to play while also having to spend unused cap dollars on replacements.  

I just don't see JB as the kind of guy that pushes himself into a role he can't fulfill.  Also, I've never trusted Mike Brown due to his track record.  In 2021, JB coming off major knee surgery, the atrocious OL that they used to block for him.  If MB was really concerned about his $275 million dollar investment, why the hell would he be playing when he can't run or throw down the field?

All of this makes sense, except it assumes Mike Brown is dumb, which is one thing you CANNOT say about him.

Frankly, I think it's Joe the competitor wanting to be out there no matter what.  Regardless of that opinion however, whoever is making the decision needs to look at Joe's past and current mechanics then realize his mechanics are complete shyt right now because he can't push off his leg or plant and create a solid base and throw with touch, accuracy and feel.
