Joe Burrow thoughts from a hand surgeon

If he wasn't able to play, how would the team afford another QB?  Just find the cheapest option out there and take it on the chin for a few seasons?  I wonder if the state of Joe's wrist will be a factor in signing Tee?  I mean, Jake could bridge the gap for another year, but he's going to get more money in 2025 naturally.

Just makes me wonder though, not trying to be a debbie downer.  It's hard to believe Joe isn't playing for a title this year.  It's really hard to stomach.

My guess would be, we have Browning till the 2025 draft and hopefully we can find a franchise QB... Not saying that excites me.
