Bengals head coach Zac Taylor met with the media on Wednesday and gave more context to Joe Burrow’s knee injury suffered in the fourth quarter of Super Bowl LVI.
The head coach said the quarterback suffered and played through an MCL sprain in his right knee. He will not require surgery and is expected to rest these upcoming weeks.
“Joe had the sprained MCL and that’s really a reaggravation of something he did back in December,” Taylor said in the press conference. “But he’s a tough guy. He played through it. Rest is going to be the best thing for him. So that part is encouraging.”
