Joe Burrow, the star quarterback of the Cincinnati Bengals, will not participate further in this NFL season due to a wrist injury.
The NFL is investigating Burrow's omission from the week's injury reports and a now-deleted video that showed him wearing a brace on his hand.
This is the second time in Burrow's four-year NFL career he has suffered a season-ending injury in Week 11.

Cincinnati Bengals' star quarterback, Joe Burrow, has been ruled out for the remainder of the NFL season due to a wrist injury. The injury, later revealed to be a torn ligament, occurred during the Bengals' 34-20 defeat to the Baltimore Ravens. The injury happened after a nine-yard completion to running back Joe Mixon, with Burrow getting hit by Baltimore's Jadeveon Clowney.

The NFL is currently investigating the Bengals for not listing Burrow on their injury report prior to the game. This investigation was prompted by a now-deleted video that showed Burrow wearing what appeared to be a brace on his hand. Burrow, however, stated that he was wearing a compression sleeve for reasons unrelated to his injury.

This is the second time in Burrow's four-year NFL career that he has suffered a season-ending injury in Week 11. Despite the setback, Bengals' head coach Zac Taylor expressed confidence in Burrow's ability to recover and continue his career.

In the wake of Burrow's injury, backup quarterback Jake Browning will step into the starting role. The Bengals' chances of climbing off the bottom of the AFC North division have been significantly impacted by Burrow's injury. The team now faces the eighth-toughest remaining schedule, according to ESPN Analytics.
