The quarterback reportedly “felt a pop” as he fell on his right hand during Thursday night’s “Thursday Night Football” game, according to a postgame video of Joe Burrow discussing his injury with a Baltimore Ravens player.
Since then, Burrow has been ruled out for the remainder of the season due to an MRI that revealed he had torn a wrist ligament. Cincinnati Bengals fans are devastated by this news, as the team is now in serious risk of missing the playoffs.
In the second quarter, Burrow left the game and was never able to come back.
When it was all over, he did return to the field to shake hands with Ravens players and was shown talking to linebacker Patrick Queen, telling him that he “felt a pop.”
Although there was some disagreement regarding his actual remarks, Burrow’s season is tragically finished and the results of his MRI have already been made public.

Before Thursday’s game, there was some conjecture around Burrow’s potential injury. The quarterback was not on the Bengals’ injury report, but upon arriving in Baltimore, he was spotted with a protective sleeve on his right hand.
It is believed that the NFL is looking into why the team didn’t report the injury.
