Bengals Reportedly ‘Hope’ Joe Burrow Can Return from Toe Injury in Mid-December

The Cincinnati Bengals are reportedly holding out hope for the possibility of superstar quarterback Joe Burrow returning at some point during the 2025 season.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, the Bengals are hopeful Burrow will be able to come back and play by mid-December, adding that “they know that isn’t a slam dunk, but it’s possible.”

Burrow exited the Bengals’ Week 2 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars and did not return. It was later determined that he suffered a turf toe injury requiring surgery, meaning he is expected to miss at least three months, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
