Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is 100% physically this offseason. "I feel great," Burrow said. "This is the best that I've felt in the offseason. Just like every year, trying to get better, trying to get stronger, faster, healthier. Try to find ways that you can optimize your health throughout the whole season, not hurt as much. I'm in a good spot." Last year at this time, Burrow was worried about his "football mortality" and was recovering from surgery he had on his right wrist that impacted him early on. The 28-year-old posted career-highs in completion percentage (71%), passing yards (4,918) and TD:INT ratio (43:9) in 2024 despite missing out on the playoffs. Rushing prowess isn't part of Burrow's game, but the passing volume should be there to give him top-five QB upside in fantasy with excellent aerial targets.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has been named the NFL Comeback Player of the Year. This is a well deserved win for Burrow who put together a tremendous 2024 campaign. The 28-year-old threw for 4,918 passing yards with 43 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Burrow was limited to 10 games in 2023, but came back and played like one of the best quarterbacks in the league. Sadly, the Bengals struggled as a team and missed the postseason, but they will look to rebound with Burrow as their leader in 2025.
Feb 6, 2025 9:50 PM EST
Speaking on Breakfast Ball, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said he believes in the organization and that the Bengals have the salary cap space to retain core players like receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins (impending free agent), defensive end Trey Hendrickson and tight end Mike Gesicki (impending free agent). Burrow added that he's motivated to keep the core of the team together and that he'd be willing to restructure his contract in order to make that happen. Although the Bengals couldn't overcome a dreadful start in 2024 to make the postseason, Burrow led the NFL in pass attempts (652), completions (460), passing yards (4,918), touchdown passes (43) and passing yards per game (289.3) in 17 games. Even without the elite rushing ability of QBs like Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen, Burrow finished as the QB2 in overall fantasy points and will be a top-five QB in drafts this fall.
Feb 6, 2025 12:05 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 277 yards, one touchdown, and one pick off 37-for-46 passing in Saturday's much-needed win over the Steelers. The signal-caller entered Week 18 by tossing at least three touchdowns each of his last eight appearances. While he cooled off on Saturday night, he still did enough to lead the Bengals to another victory while keeping the team's postseason hopes alive. With that in mind, regardless of what happens with Cincinnati concerning the playoffs, Burrow will be a top-five quarterback in all fantasy drafts heading into the 2025-26 campaign.
Jan 4, 2025 11:25 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist, knee) was limited during practice on Tuesday and Wednesday. However, he's was a full participant in Friday's session. The Bengals still have a chance to make the playoffs, so it would have taken a lot to keep the signal-caller off the field in Week 18 against the Steelers. While some other things need to happen that are outside of the team's control regarding their postseason chances, Burrow will do all he can to pick up another win. Without question, he's been an MVP-caliber quarterback all year, leading the league in passing yards (4,641). Burrow also ranks first in touchdowns (42), with the former LSU Tiger tossing at least three of them in each of his previous eight games. While there's a chance Chase Brown (ankle) and Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) won't be in uniform on Saturday night, Burrow remains a top fantasy option for the remaining redraft participants as well as DFS managers.
Jan 2, 2025 8:21 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist, knee) was listed as a limited participant for Wednesday's team practice. This has been the veteran's routine for a few weeks now -- logging a limited session or two since picking up a knee injury in Cincinnati's win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14. Fortunately, it hasn't forced him to miss any time. There hasn't been another quarterback as hot as Burrow, who has tossed three or more passing scores in every outing since Week 9. The 28-year-old leads all passers in yards and touchdowns and trails only the Ravens' Lamar Jackson in QBR. With the Bengals still fighting for the final playoff spot in the AFC, expect the veteran to be out there this Saturday when his team lines up against the Pittsburgh Steelers in a road tilt. Cincinnati currently holds a 5% chance to snag a spot in the tournament.
Jan 1, 2025 9:17 PM EST
According to Jay Morrison of BengalsTalk.com, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist/knee) was a limited participant during Tuesday's walkthrough practice session. Burrow has been dealing with both of these injuries throughout the season but has yet to miss any time due to them. Last weekend, Burrow led the Bengals to a victory over the Denver Broncos to keep them alive in the AFC playoff picture. In this game, Burrow threw for 412 yards and three scores. The former No.1 overall selection has thrown at least three passing scores in eight straight games. During this span, he has tallied 28 total scores while averaging 331.0 passing yards per game. Fantasy managers should continue to view Burrow as a high-end QB1 in all formats on Saturday when he faces the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Dec 31, 2024 6:43 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 412 yards and three touchdowns off 39-for-49 passing in Saturday's overtime victory over the Broncos. He added 25 yards off four carries, one of which resulted in a trip to the end zone. The former LSU Tiger has now tossed at least three touchdowns in each of the Bengals' previous eight contests. While he likely won't win the MVP award this season, his name is certainly mentioned in the conversation. With that in mind, the Bengals need to beat the Steelers to keep their playoff hopes alive. As such, Burrow should be at his best despite the challenging matchup.
Dec 28, 2024 8:17 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist, knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. However, he doesn't carry an injury designation heading into the Saturday's showdown with Denver. With the Bengals still barely alive for a postseason spot, it would take a lot to keep Burrow off the field for the pivotal game against the Broncos. The signal-caller is coming off another quality outing, throwing for 252 yards off 76.7% passing against the Browns. He also tossed three touchdowns for the fifth time in as many weeks. While the Denver defense possesses more of a challenge to Burrow, he's one of the best quarterbacks in the National Football League, keeping him a starting fantasy option for Week 17.
Dec 26, 2024 8:35 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (right wrist/knee) was limited in practice on Tuesday. Burrow has been on the injury report with the wrist injury throughout the season. He has also been limited with the knee injury for the past several weeks. As such, his limited participation on Tuesday is not concerning. Burrow is amid one of the best stretches of his career. He has thrown for three or more touchdown passes in every game since Week 9. He has also not thrown for less than 251 passing yards since Week 8. He has racked up 4,229 passing yards and 39 touchdowns in 15 games this season. He is the reason why many fantasy managers are in their championship games. The Bengals face a tough matchup with the Denver Broncos in Week 17. However, this team has been unstoppable lately and they are playing for their playoff lives. A win this weekend would go a long way toward their playoff hopes.
Dec 24, 2024 6:07 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow went 23-for-30 with 252 passing yards and three scores during their victory over the Cleveland Browns. He added 19 yards on two rushing attempts. Burrow found Tee Higgins in the opening quarter on a two-yard TD pass. Then in the second, he found Andrei Iosivas on a six-yard TD strike. Later in the fourth, he connected with his top wideout Ja'Marr Chase on a 32-yard TD pass to put the game out of reach. Joe Burrow has now thrown at least three passing scores in each of his past seven contests. During this span he has tallied an impressive 24 TD passes. The former No.1 overall pick remains a high-end QB1 heading into his Week 17 tilt against a tough Denver Broncos defense that has allowed the tenth-fewest PPR points to opposing QBs this season.
Dec 22, 2024 6:07 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said that quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) was officially limited for the third time this week on Friday but he is good to go for Sunday's divisional contest against the Cleveland Browns in Week 16. Burrow is also battling through soreness in his surgically repaired right wrist, but all systems are go for the 28-year-old signal-caller. Even though the former first overall pick threw for under 200 yards against the Browns in their first meeting on Oct. 20, fantasy managers should keep Burrow locked into their starting lineups this weekend as a top-five QB. Burrow has been the QB3 overall in total fantasy points and currently leads the NFL in passing yards (3,977) and touchdown passes (36) while throwing only eight interceptions. The Browns have played divisional opponents much tougher in 2024, but Burrow is a must-start, high-end QB1.
Dec 20, 2024 12:35 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee, wrist) was listed as limited for the team's first practice of the week on Wednesday. Burrow has been managing a sore knee and has been getting treatment for his surgically repaired right wrist in the last week, but he was able to start in the Week 15 win over the Tennessee Titans and continued to be impressive, throwing for 271 yards and three touchdowns, although he also uncorked two interceptions and lost a fumble. There's no reason for fantasy managers not to expect the 28-year-old to be out there for a divisional matchup this Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. The Bengals are likely to miss the postseason, but hasn't been for lack of Burrow's effort as one of the best QBs in football in 2024. Even though he had only 181 yards and two TDs in the first meeting against Cleveland on Oct. 20, Burrow should be a top-five fantasy QB in Week 16.
Dec 18, 2024 5:05 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) didn't have any issues with his surgically repaired knee in the Week 15 win over the Tennessee Titans on Sunday. Burrow was wearing a sleeve on his knee in last Monday night's win over the Dallas Cowboys and dealt with some soreness after that game, but he was fine to play on Sunday against the Titans. The 28-year-old former first overall pick had a mixed bag in the victory, going 26-for-37 for 271 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions. He also lost a fumble, but the Bengals defense forced six turnovers to help the team overcome a sloppy performance. Burrow fell just shy of his fifth straight game with at least 300 yards passing. Burrow leads the league in both yardage (3,977) and passing touchdowns (36). Despite throwing for only 181 yards in Week 7 against the Browns, he'll be a must-start QB1 against them in the rematch in Week 16.
Dec 16, 2024 3:32 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 271 yards, three touchdowns, and two picks off 26-for-37 passing in Sunday's win over the Titans. It wasn't the prettiest showing from the signal-caller, who also had a fumble. But it was still good enough for Burrow to finish with his sixth-straight game with at least three touchdown tosses. More importantly, his efforts resulted in another win, which bolstered the Bengals playoff chances while helping those competing for a fantasy football championship. Fresh off another victory, Burrow and the Bengals will look to keep it going against the Browns in Week 16, with the former LSU Tiger throwing for 181 yards and two scores when these clubs met back in October.
Dec 15, 2024 4:35 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) is officially good to go for Sunday's contest versus the Tennessee Titans in Week 15 and won't carry an injury designation into the game. Burrow was seen wearing a sleeve on his surgically repaired knee in Monday night's win over the Dallas Cowboys and dealt with some residual soreness the next day. He was limited in practice this week but is good to go and should be started as a top-five fantasy QB in lineups this weekend in what is the first week of the fantasy playoffs in most leagues. The Titans defense has been underrated this season, allowing the fewest passing yards (2,459) on the season. However, they've also allowed the 13th-most fantasy points per game to quarterbacks through 14 weeks, and Burrow enters Week 15 as the QB3 in overall fantasy points while leading the NFL in passing yards and passing touchdowns.
Dec 13, 2024 12:48 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee, wrist) was listed as limited for the second straight day this week in Thursday's practice. Burrow was seen wearing a sleeve on his surgically repaired knee in the Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys on Monday night and came out of the game with some soreness. The 28-year-old might not be exactly 100 percent heading into a Week 16 game against the Tennessee Titans this Sunday, but he's not expected to be in any danger of sitting out. He's likely to practice in full on Friday and be removed from the final injury report. Tennessee hasn't been a friendly matchup for opposing QBs in fantasy this year, but Burrow's body of work in 2024 has made him a must-start, high-end WR1. Burrow is the overall QB3 in fantasy points through 14 weeks, he leads the NFL with 3,706 passing yards and also leads the NFL with his 33 passing touchdowns.
Dec 12, 2024 5:19 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee) will practice this week. "Just sore," head coach Zac Taylor said. Burrow was seen wearing a sleeve on his surgically repaired left knee in Monday night's 27-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys. It's something to keep an eye on down the stretch of the season, but Burrow will practice this week and should be fine to start in Week 15 versus the Tennessee Titans. Despite facing a Titans defense that has been surprisingly good in 2024, Burrow should remain a top-five fantasy QB in Week 15 fantasy lineups. The 28-year-old has been dicing up opposing defenses most of the year and enters the week as the QB3 in overall fantasy points, behind only Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. Burrow has a total of 3,706 passing yards and has thrown 33 touchdowns and only six interceptions in 2024. Leave him locked into your starting lineups.
Dec 11, 2024 1:09 PM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow completed 33 of his 44 pass attempts for 369 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception during Monday's Week 14 win over the Dallas Cowboys. He also took two sacks and lost two rushing yards. All in all, the former No. 1 pick had another very impressive performance, largely thanks to his connection with Ja'Marr Chase. The star receiver caught 14 passes on Monday and accounted for nearly half of his quarterback's passing yards in the primetime victory. Burrow is the overall QB2 in fantasy football since Week 9 despite having a bye during that window.
Dec 10, 2024 2:03 AM EST
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has arguably been the league's top signal-caller during the 2024-25 campaign. The AFC Player of the Month has been stellar, throwing for 3,337 yards, 30 touchdowns, and five interceptions while completing 67.7% of his throws. However, his efficiency hasn't resulted in a winning record for Cincinnati. With the Bengals barely clinging on to hope of making the playoffs, Burrow and company will try to keep the team alive by earning a win over the Cowboys on Monday night. With the Dallas defense allowing 28.3 points per game this season, Burrow should be in line for a potent fantasy showing. His ceiling will increase even more if Nick Vigil (foot) and Trevon Diggs (knee) aren't on the field in Week 14.
