Burrow Out: Bengals Face Patriots Without Star QB
23 Nov
Summary
- Joe Burrow will not play against the New England Patriots.
- The Bengals have a 3-7 record, jeopardizing their playoff chances.
- Joe Flacco is expected to start at quarterback for the Bengals.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been officially ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Despite being a full participant in practice, head coach Zac Taylor opted against activating their star player.
This absence places immense pressure on the Bengals' playoff aspirations, as they currently hold a 3-7 record. A victory against the Patriots is crucial, followed by another win against the Ravens on Thanksgiving, to re-enter the playoff conversation.
Veteran quarterback Joe Flacco, a former Super Bowl champion, is anticipated to start in Burrow's place. Bengals fans are hoping Flacco can deliver a surprising performance to keep the team's dim postseason hopes flickering.
