The recent concern over how Tua Tagovailoa’s concussion has been handled in the last two weeks has reignited the conversation about head injuries in football, leading many people to weigh in. This time around, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow chimed in and touched on his own head injuries.
“I’ve had some where I don’t remember the second half or I don’t remember the entire game or I know that I got a little dizzy at one point,” Burrow said on The Colin Cowherd Podcast. “But nothing long-lasting.”
When asked whether he has any anxiety about possible head injuries, Burrow said it was simply an “inherent risk” of playing football, and playing quarterback doesn’t exactly exclude you from those dangers.
