Joe Burrow's Contract Not Impacting Return to Practice, Bengals' Zac Taylor Says

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has not practiced since suffering a strained right calf during a July 27 training camp session.

Burrow and the Bengals also haven't agreed to a long-term contract extension as of yet while other signal-callers in his class (e.g. the Philadelphia Eagles' Jalen Hurts and the Los Angeles Chargers' Justin Herbert) have landed lucrative new deals.

On Tuesday, Bengals head coach Zac Taylor assured reporters that Burrow's ongoing absence is not related to any contract dispute following a question from Kelsey Conway of the Cincinnati Enquirer.
