Joe Burrow Has A Horrible Week 1

Joe Burrow Has A Horrible Week 1

one year ago

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow struggled during the loss to the Browns. The signal-caller, who recently received a record-breaking contract, went 14-for-31 to total 82 yards. He also had a carry that resulted in negative yardage. The former LSU Tiger missed nearly all training camp with a calf injury, so some residual rust was expected. The sloppy weather in Cleveland also didn't help. Nonetheless, it's only Week 1, and fantasy managers shouldn't overreact. That said, despite Burrow's miserable performance, he remains a must-start for Week 2 against Baltimore, considering slow starts are common from the 2020 No. 1 overall pick.
