The Bengals posted a thoroughly convincing victory over their rival Ravens on Thursday night to close out the NFL’s Thanksgiving triple-header. Joe Burrow’s long-awaited return proved to be quite a difference-maker as he made the Cincinnati offense hum in a way that does not suggest a team fighting to avoid double-digit losses. After putting the final garnish on a 32–14 victory, Burrow and his teammates were ushered near an impressive spread of food and given an audience with NBC reporter Mellissa Stark.
And then, well, chaos ensued as Burrow gave a heartfelt interview about his emotions returning to battle while Ja’Marr Chase and the rest of the gathered Bengals players dug into the Thanksgiving snacks.
