Cool to see Joe here but I am not sure this really tells us anything. Joe is seen in the first clip squatting with a safety bar. That type of bar allows you to keep your arm in a neutral position during the lift vs. a traditional barbell where you are actually putting some weight through your hand and wrist. With the safety bar, there is little force necessary to keep the weight stabilized.
Essentially, Joe is working out his legs while his hand is hurt. Which is great, but I don't know if I would say that it is significant. At minimum, he is cleared to be putting a little force through it which is cool to see.

Loved the last quote where he basically alludes to the fact he’s seen all the bullshit that’s being posted online and he’s got a point to prove.
I’ll be honest until it’s September and he’s spinning it 40+ yards to Chase I’ll be worried, this injury sounds weirdly complicated and until it’s in a proper game environment we won’t know if he’s the same old Burrow.
Just need to keep our fingers crossed that for once he has a healthy camp and get the wrist as strong as possible.
