I'm no medical expert (though I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night), but I think Joe is going to be just fine come Week 1 vs Cleveland.

The road to our Superbowl starts now, LFG!!! WHO DEY

That’s a great sign to see Joe Burrow throwing passes and working out on the field. You want to exercise the calf muscle,it will strengthen it as well help it heal quicker. Just take it slowly,you don’t want to overwork the muscle and aggravate it again. Just keep working Joe,you will make it back bro! Who Dey!

[@Boston_CremePie]

Joe B a competitor. I respect it but I’m 100% sure he’s not a 100% cleared to be on the field right now. He needs to take his time. NFL is a short but long season. They have to win a title this year. Bengals need this guy healthy. All the pieces are finally around him.

[@ericellis7556]

Our O-line needs to play their best all year long...i'm sick of saying maybe next year we'll win a Superbowl...been sayin that since i was 8yrs old! Lets go get it done this year! I got faith in you guys! WHO DEY!!!

[@jouleonoupshaw8236]

First off he may not be 100 however when u gettin better it’s best to move around to keep from gettin tight at the same time as healin I’m sure they team was clear not to go 100 percent but do 30 which that wat that look like to me

[@danmoore9143]

He was never missing a game.

[@fredbetts3514]

As I said a day ago, I'm not a doctor but looks to me like Burrow will be playing week 1 👍

Shoutout to the guy practicing the National Anthem in the background. Dude's got pipes!

[@davidsettles2315]

I kind of feel like I cheated and got his performance early. He’s going to kill it tomorrow!

[@honestfan420]

This is the best news of the day/week/month by far. Happy Friday and who fuggin Dey baby. SUPER BOWL SZN

[@randommix9967]

Logan wilson extended this month....

Keep em guessing Joe. Keep em guessing

Fantastic...

[@WatchtowerImAwake]

Let’s go !!!!!

[@dantheman5745]

CBT, hardest-working guys in the business.

[@johnramsay4520]

He is definitely playing because it’s August 11 and the regular season is September😎

[@pharaohspeaksotti]

We have a star at qb we can't just say "anything" the media will spin it and cause confusion. I'm happy they were silent about the contract and the injury.

[@Harry00331]

Love this and goodluck joe

[@user-cg6em2yn2v]

Favorite bengals outlet. Always quick with latest updates, accurate information and straight to the point

[@claygillman9351]

Thanks for the video. Just the title got me excited.

[@user-op8he2vv9s]

Who Dey Joe Burrow

[@2PAiD18]

Dude is just different Joey b!!!!!!

[@cabner]

Hope he doesn't push it.

[@bryan3487]

i know he definitely does not need to be taking any snaps today

[@EvangelismforGod]

Me too!

[@burrow9l-xu1fp]

Nal Joe smart

[@davidsettles2315]

That’s why he’s just jogging now. He knows he has to ease his way in, and that’s exactly what he’s doing. Burrow will be back when he’s ready.

[@randallroberts9161]

If he wasn’t cleared to do it he wouldn’t be doing it

[@louiseregan2498]

Alright, James, keep the timely reports coming. 😊

[@terrellc8658]

Yes that's a good sign

[@bigboi5078]

This is great news really you’re always on top of things

[@bertdonley513WHODEY]

Hes a dog lets fing goo WHO DEY BABY

[@whodeynationbaby]

The national anthem playing through this update made it even more epic James

[@kingale8894]

Who Dey 🔥 💯 Praying for positive progression.

[@anthonybagley7768]

He dont need to practice if he wasn't ready but hes young he a be fine for week 1❤❤

[@Harry00331]

If he can let him play 1 preseason just to get those muscles movin and the brain muscle to who Dey 4 life

[@robd4376]

FACTS James!!

[@cincybearcats1]

James, why are you not allowing me to speak on your show? I got all the info on these injuries, man. A calf strain that occurs from an acceleration movement is just never going to be as severe as a deceleration/eccentric movement. I could've calmed the fears of all the bengals fans for 2 weeks now.

[@nealmccoy5727]

You should apply as the team doctor

[@kevinevans8892]

I believe Joe Burrow is just fine. My only concern is that the Browns might try aiming at his legs in that week 1 game

[@iantierney540]

Then they’ll have fun dealing with the 15 yard unnecessary roughness

[@davidsettles2315]

Well burrows potential reinjury is worth way more than a 15 yard penalty.

[@ericellis7556]

O-line just needs to protect Joe Cool at all cost!

[@JacobBerry-lo3bm]

Surprisingly, I thought the Browns played us clean in last years games. I just remember Myles Garrett getting to him a couple times and with his chance he didn’t hit Burrow any harder than he had to , to get him on the ground. Really kinda made me respect Garrett’s game even more. Nevertheless any good pass rush that gets to the QB can be dangerous. Hope they keep JB clean.

[@hesteradam001]

LFG!

[@tedshipley8114]

I’m going to the falcons preseason game and am hoping to see Joe! do you think he will travel, James?

[@fortune5809]

Hi!

[@charlesh1735]

Sydney Jones was getting torched tonight in the secondary. It wouldn’t surprise me one bit if DJ Ivey beats him out in camp. Right now Sydney Jones is struggling! Big time!

[@stevecrawford333]

Picture spraining your calf as an avg person, in 2 weeks you definitely would be moving around pretty fine on it. This is just caution, dude is fine

[@vortexfx420]

You plant on your left leg when dropping back as a right handed QB. From previous experience ;)

[@BengalsTalk]

I misspoke. He drives off that back leg though. Would probably be better if it was his left leg.

[@bravobreezy6192]

Number 2

[@one1blue]

I remodel homes during the day. But my night job is a KZbin doctor. Joe Sheisty will be just fine. Cya in week 1.

[@cancerrebelsrunningwithreason]

[@luke1730]

Great news. 1st to comment

[@charlesh1735]

Defense let me down tonight. Lou needs to get the new guys brought in free agency and the draft to play better.

[@mhayward1291]

Reports of his injury are highly exaggerated. Preseason click bait

[@bobbyrebholz2183]

Seems it was just a Charley horse this entire time while the catastrophizing began.

[@robertoi5016]

😊 Good sign I'd like to see him play in week three

[@wavegod86]

People in the comments need to keep in mind. He has to test his calf out to make sure he’s good or bad. Y’all want him to sit on his ass all day everyday?! Y’all weird man 😂 Smokey Joe will play week 1 and be fine

[@BigRichaProductions]

Next time the National Anthem is Playing, you stop.. love everything else you do.

[@BengalsTalk]

…. The singer was rehearsing. Can’t stop. The guy rehearsed for a while

[@randall8768]

First

[@rebeccalyle8443]

I’m afraid he is pushing himself too far. A doctor said one sack could cause him to tear his Achilles tendon. I pray that he was wrong.

[@randommix9967]

That could be true without a pre-existing injury. ....It might rain this summer.....

[@newfoundmoralclarity]

One sack could cause a lot of things, up to and including things much worse than an achilles tear 😂

[@mrsmith735]

LFG!
