Cincinnati Bengals rookie quarterback Joe Burrow is officially starting his recovery process.
Burrow successfully underwent knee surgery on Wednesday, the team announced. Burrow had the procedure done 10 days after he tore the ACL and MCL in his left knee and suffered other structural damage.
The procedure went as planned and he is expected to make a complete recovery," the team said in a statement. "Joe will begin the recovery process and we look forward to his return."
Burrow was the top overall pick in the 2020 draft and was in the midst of a strong rookie season before he suffered the injury at Washington on Nov.
