Arrr, mates! In this treacherous voyage through the seas of the 2023 NFL season, many a ship be in distress as their captain, the starting quarterback, be struck down by a cursed injury. Aye, 'tis a sad sight indeed!
The Cincinnati Bengals received devastating news when it was confirmed that quarterback Joe Burrow would be out for the rest of the season due to a torn ligament in his right wrist. Burrow, who was in his first year of a $275 million contract, sustained the injury during a game against the Baltimore Ravens. Head coach Zac Taylor stated that the injury would likely require surgery, leaving Burrow sidelined for the remainder of the season. Despite the setback, Burrow remains positive and is focused on supporting his team in any way he can.In addition to Burrow, several other NFL teams have also lost their starting quarterbacks. The Cleveland Browns will be without Deshaun Watson for the entire season after he suffered a shoulder injury. The Minnesota Vikings' Kirk Cousins sustained a season-ending Achilles injury, and the New York Giants' Daniel Jones tore his ACL in his right knee. These injuries have forced teams to rely on backup quarterbacks and make adjustments to their strategies.
While these injuries are unfortunate, teams are finding silver linings. The Browns have committed to Watson as their starter for next season, and the Vikings have had success with their backup quarterback, Joshua Dobbs. The Giants secured their first win with Tommy DeVito as their backup quarterback, and the New York Jets are eagerly awaiting the return of Aaron Rodgers, who suffered an Achilles injury in his debut with the team.
Despite the setbacks, these teams are determined to push forward and make the most of the situation. Players and coaches are remaining optimistic and focused on the remainder of the season.
