Cincinnati Bengals reveal Joe Burrow’s official injury status in first injury report of Week 2
The Cincinnati Bengals have begun practicing for Week 2’s matchup against the Houston Texans. Quarterback Joe Burrow highlights the first injury report of the week.
The Cincinnati Bengals returned to the practice field for the first time since defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1.
Below is the first injury report of Week 2 for Cincinnati.
Bengals’ Wednesday injury report
| Player | Injury | W/T/F | Designation |
| QB Joe Burrow | Back | Limited | – |
| DT B.J. Hil | Rest | DNP | – |
| DE Shemar Stewart | Knee | Full | – |
Joe Burrow (back) spoke with reporters following practice, revealing he’s dealing with “back tightness” and he started feeling it sometime after last Sunday’s win.
Burrow got in plenty of, as he calls them, “mental reps” but hardly threw the ball during the day. He’s the main guy to monitor for the rest of the week for obvious reasons.
Hill, like last week, is being reserved in practice as he’s still coming back from his foot injury. Jonathan Allen out-snapped him against Tampa Bay, and that may be the case in Houston.
Stewart (knee) went full like he did last Wednesday. Whether or not he can stack full days this week will determine if he can play and make his season debut.
