Joe Burrow becoming a threat on the ground

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow may never be known for his running ability the way that Jackson is, but he showed just enough of his legs Sunday to make a difference.
Burrow ran the ball just five times for 20 yards against the Lions, but it made a difference. His first run came on a 1-yard dive up the middle on the Bengals’ opening drive of the game. He also had a 3-yard scramble later in the drive, in which he ran out of bounds. The drive ended with a 24-yard touchdown strike to Chris Evans.
