Joe Burrow Cleared for 2024 NFL Season

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been fully cleared for contact ahead of the 2024 NFL season, following surgery for a torn Scapholunate ligament in his right wrist. Burrow, who missed the final seven games of the 2023 season due to the injury, is expected to participate in training camp and may see some preseason action, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Burrow's return is critical for the Bengals, who struggled last season without their star quarterback and finished with a 9-8 record. In addition to his health update, Burrow made headlines by debuting a new bleached blonde buzz cut, drawing comparisons to rapper Eminem. The Bengals hope a fully healthy Burrow can lead them back to the playoffs after a disappointing season.
