NFL: All clear in Cincy: QB Joe Burrow ready for training camp

Joe Burrow enters training camp on Tuesday with full medical clearance from the torn wrist ligament that crashed the Cincinnati Bengals’ No. 1 quarterback onto season-ending injured reserve last November.

Burrow has no contact limitations and the Bengals plan to “most likely” play him — albeit selectively — in preseason games next month, head coach Zac Taylor said Monday.

Burrow was limited for the month of August last year with a calf injury sustained in on-field workouts that was initially feared to be far worse. He was initially hurt July 27 and tweaked the injury Week 2 against the Ravens.

In Week 11 of the 2020 season, Burrow suffered a season-ending knee injury and required surgery to repair his torn ACL and MCL.

Most starting quarterbacks with established No. 1 roles in the NFL did not play in preseason games the past two years.

Burrow attempted one pass — it was incomplete — in the 2021 preseason, the last time he was on the field in a preseason game.
