More than a week ago, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow resumed throwing light passes and completed a walkthrough with his receivers for the first time after being away to undergo an appendectomy on July 27.
Burrow did not play in Cincinnati’s first preseason game against the Cardinals on Friday. As the Bengals star continues to prepare himself for Cincinnati’s regular-season opener against the Steelers on Sept. 11, he spoke to reporters about his injury, confirming his appendix ruptured and that he does not “anticipate” playing in any preseason games.
Burrow lost weight from the surgery but declined to tell reporters how much he lost.
