Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow had a throwing session for the first time since he suffered a strained right calf July 27.
CINCINNATI — The most eventful thing to happen at Paycor Stadium on Friday came hours before the Cincinnati Bengals played their preseason opener against the Green Bay Packers.
Quarterback Joe Burrow had a throwing session for the first time since he suffered a strained right calf July 27. Burrow then wore a bucket hat and stood on the sideline in the team’s 36-19 loss to the Packers.
After the exhibition game, Bengals coach Zac Taylor didn’t have much to say about Burrow’s timetable to return but indicated he’s trending in the right direction.
« I think things are good and he’s progressing as he should, » Taylor said.
While the Bengals’ fifth-year coach has remained tight-lipped on when Burrow might return, he has not added any time to his initial prognosis that the star QB will be out for « several weeks, » starting with when he got hurt in late July.
