With yet another season-ending injury, is the Bengals’ Joe Burrow becoming this generation’s Andrew Luck? While injuries didn’t force Luck to retire, he did choose to retire due to the injuries he sustained. And as you might recall, he took people by surprise, announcing his retirement in late August.
I’m not saying that Burrow is going to suddenly retire, but are the Bengals wasting his career? Who exactly is to blame for his repeated injuries, if anybody? When it comes down to it, generally, he hasn’t suffered major injuries on typical, crushing hits. With his turf toe injury, he has now suffered multiple very unusual injuries for quarterbacks.
