Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow made it through a though victory on Monday night.
Winning without further aggravation to his right calf is great, but the battle on that front is far from over.
Head coach Zac Taylor told reporters leading up to Wednesday's walkthrough that Burrow will take all the reps during the light practice, but is still considered day-to-day with his calf.
The quicker turnaround from playing Monday evening to traveling on Saturday means a different practice schedule, putting a walkthrough right at the start. Burrow will go full today, but Thursday and Friday are up in the air.
Taylor also mentioned the a similar course of action will be taken with tight end Irv Smith Jr. and rookie wide receiver/punt returner Charlie Jones. Smith missed Week 3 with a hamstring injury, and Jones is now dealing with a hand injury.
In the Bengals' first injury report for their upcoming game against the Tennessee Titans, Smith and Jones were listed as projected non-participants. Since it was just a walkthrough, their designations are just projections. It's a way of saying they would not have practiced if there was an actual session.
Burrow was listed as a full participant, which does bode well for him going full on Thursday as well.
