NFL quarterback injuries continue to mount through Week 11: 'That's a part of the game'
The Cincinnati Bengals were dealt a serious blow on Friday when head coach Zac Taylor confirmed that quarterback Joe Burrow would be out for the remainder of the season after suffering a torn ligament in his right wrist during Thursday night’s game against the Baltimore Ravens.
Burrow, playing in the first year of his $275 million contract, was injured during the second quarter of the Bengals’ 34-20 loss to the Ravens.
Taylor spoke to the media on Friday and said the injury will likely require surgery, meaning that the 26-year-old signal-caller would be sidelined with injury.

“Obviously, [he’s] very disappointed because he likes leading this team and knows the opportunities that lie in front of us,” Taylor said.
“But again, he’s responding in a positive manner. You can only control what you can control, and his next step for us is continuing to lead this team, just in a different way, and assisting Jake [Browning] and entrusting that he’ll be able to do that and help us be fine moving forward.”
Burrow told reporters Friday it was “tough.”
“You work so hard for seasons and moments like these. Whenever you get hurt, and it ends early, it’s tough to handle. That’s a part of the game.”
Burrow is no stranger to this type of heartbreak. During his rookie season in 2020, he sustained a significant knee injury during the Bengals’ Week 11 matchup against Washington. He underwent surgery, which officially ended his rookie campaign.
Burrow finishes the 2023 season with 244 completions for 2,309 yards and 15 touchdowns.
Next in line will likely be Jake Browning, a 27-year-old who was a career practice squad player until this season.
But the Bengals’ situation this season, unfortunately, isn’t unique.
The Cleveland Browns will be without quarterback Deshaun Watson for a full season again after the veteran signal-caller suffered a season-ending shoulder injury against the Ravens in Week 10.
Watson, who missed the first 11 games of the 2022 season after getting suspended by the NFL after accusations of sexual misconduct, will miss the rest of this season after he fractured his right shoulder during the Browns’ 33-31 win over Baltimore.
“It’s very tough,” Watson told reporters during a press conference last Wednesday. “Hurt about it, but I’m going to make sure I keep my head above water and make sure I stay in touch with all the guys and support them as much as I possibly can, and attack this rehab process after surgery and make sure that I’m doing whatever I can to be beneficial for the team while not actually being on the field with them, and also prepping for the next year.”
With a 5-1 record as starter, Watson completed 105 passes for 1,115 yards and seven touchdowns. With a fully guaranteed $230 million contract, Watson is owed $46 million for each of the next three years with a cap hit of almost $64 million per season.
Following news of the injury, Browns general manager Andrew Berry committed to Watson’s status as the team’s starter next season.
“Yeah, we feel good about Deshaun. We see how talented he is. We could see it since he returned from his last injury, the level that he is able to play. He’s smart, he’s physically tough, he’s mentally tough. He really is, as [head coach] Kevin’s [Stefanski] mentioned, he’s the leader of the team, and we’re excited to get him back for 2024.”
For now, the Browns will stick with rookie Dorian Thompson-Robinson, who pulled off a 13-10 win over the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. But Berry hasn’t stopped there. On Monday, the team announced the signing of veteran quarterback Joe Flacco, a former Super Bowl MVP during his time with the Ravens.
JETS TO START TIM BOYLE OVER ZACH WILSON IN BLACK FRIDAY MATCHUP VS DOLPHINS
A defeated Kirk Cousins limped off the field before being carted off during the Minnesota Vikings’ Week 8 victory over the Green Bay Packers.
An MRI later confirmed the Vikings’ worst fears: Cousins had sustained a season-ending Achilles injury.
Minnesota had won three straight with Cousins after losing four of five to start the season. At the time of his injury, Cousins was tied for the NFL lead in touchdown passes (18), second in passing yards (2,331) and third in passer rating (103.8).
“I was Googling the five stages of grief, maybe even that night, trying to understand that better,” Cousins said Friday. “I don’t think it’s stages. I think all five just swirl all at once.”
“I’m still mad. I’m still disappointed. But then you go right back to all the things you know. I can’t change it. You’ve got to move forward. That’s what we sign up for when we step between the white lines,” Cousins said. “I’m fortunate to have come this far and not had a surgery in football, so you’re also grateful, too. I just believe there’s more to the story up ahead.”
The timing of Cousins’ injury is complicated with his contract set to expire next spring.
“Those conversations will happen, but it’s just not time yet,” he added Friday. “We’ve got so much to focus on with this season. The guys are playing so well, and that’s really where the attention needs to be.”
The Vikings, however, have found themselves a silver lining with Joshua Dobbs, a seven-year veteran who was acquired from the Arizona Cardinals in an emergency trade two days after Cousins went down.
Minnesota’s winning streak continued to five under Dobbs, but it was halted Sunday with a 21-20 loss to the Denver Broncos.
The New York Giants‘ struggles this season were exacerbated when in Week 9 Daniel Jones suffered a torn ACL in his right knee, the second notable injury for the fifth-year quarterback this season.
Jones was hurt on a non-contact play against the Las Vegas Raiders. On the final play of the first quarter, his right knee gave out while he was looking downfield.
“I mean, it’s tough, for sure. You put a lot into the season. You put a lot into preparing to play, and to get it taken from you through an injury is definitely tough,” Jones said after the game.
“That’s real and that’s something that you deal with as a player, but it’s part of the game at this level, at any level, really, it’s something that you have to deal with, and part of it. I understand that, and it’s unfortunate, but I can’t afford to feel sorry for myself or sulk. It’s part of it, and I’ll be fine. I’ll bounce back, attack the rehab process like I have anything else and come back stronger.”
The Giants held a 2-7 record at the time of Jones’ injury. Little has improved behind backup quarterback Tommy DeVito, who picked up his first win with a 31-19 victory over the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
Jones will remain sidelined with 108 completions for 909 yards and two touchdowns.
TOMMY DEVITO PICKS UP FIRST CAREER WIN AS GIANTS’ DEFENSE PICKS OFF SAM HOWELL 3 TIMES
The New York Jets organization was rejuvenated with the addition of four-time league MVP Aaron Rodgers during the offseason.
But it took just four plays for it all to come crashing down.
In his debut with the Jets on Sept. 11, Rodgers ruptured his Achilles, and with it, the Jets’ hopes of making the playoffs for the first time since 2010.
“I feel more for Aaron than anyone,” head coach Robert Saleh said at the time. “He has invested so much into this organization, so much into this journey that he’s embarked on and wanting to be a part of what we have got going here and how much he’s invested to not only this organization but his teammates, himself, this fanbase, this city.”
“I have a lot of emotions for him. As for us, it’s really all about him, it is. I don’t look at it like, ‘Woe is me here for the organization.’ I think guys are excited about being able to step up and continue the things that we’ve been building, but a lot of hurt for Aaron.”
Rodgers raised eyebrows with his seemingly speedy recovery and rehab process. His move from a boot to no cast to throwing on the field before games raised questions about if the former Packers star might be fit for a return this season and if it would be worth it.
Rodgers has repeatedly hinted at making a return this season, and according to one report, he’s eyeing mid-December.
“If I have a great week this week and next week, that could be accelerated,” Rodgers said on “The Pat McAfee Show” last week. “If we’re not in it in three or four weeks, that could take it a different way. But I expect us to be in it and I expect to come back.”
The Jets suffered a blowout loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, falling to 4-6. On Monday, Saleh confirmed that the Jets would be demoting Zach Wilson to third-string quarterback in favor of Tim Boyle for Friday’s game against the AFC East-leading Miami Dolphins.
It seems the Jets are hoping to turn things around, perhaps just in time for Rodgers’ return.

True crime stories you missed this week: June 26-30, 2023
Bryan Kohberger’s defense team tore into prosecutors’ DNA collection, use of genetic genealogy and tracking of a white sedan that allegedly linked their client to the murders of four University of Idaho students.
DNA from three other unidentified males was found at the crime scene, including on a glove found outside the Moscow, Idaho, home where Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Madison Mogen, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Ethan Chapin, 20, were killed in November, according to the June 22 court filing.
“It remains unclear what the police first relied on in focusing their investigation on Mr. Kohberger,” his lawyers wrote in court documents that challenged law enforcement’s use of genetic genealogy and questioned how police knew to look for a white Elantra.
Jeffrey Epstein was given extra linens in a Manhattan jail cell, and authorities negligently failed to assign him a cellmate or take other precautions leading up to his death in 2019, according to a newly unveiled federal investigation.
Epstein, already a convicted sex offender in Florida, died at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York in August 2019 while awaiting federal trial for sex trafficking. While finding flaws with the Bureau of Prisons and its staff members, the report also uncovered no evidence to contradict the designation of Epstein’s death as a suicide.
New charges have been filed against a New Jersey lawyer recently accused of a series of rapes in Boston between 2007 and 2008.
A Suffolk County grand jury on Tuesday afternoon indicted Matthew Nilo, a 35-year-old Boston native, on seven charges, including one count of rape, one count of aggravated rape, three counts of assault with intent to rape and two counts of indecent assault and battery.
“Mr. Nilo denies all the allegations including the latest charges,” his attorney, Joseph Cataldo, told Fox News Digital. “You can expect both a legal and factual challenge to the government’s case.”
The suspect in a triple homicide paced around the room while the prosecutor detailed the night he allegedly killed a Massachusetts family.
Christopher Ferguson, 41, appeared via Zoom in Newton District Court for the first time since his arrest Tuesday morning in connection with the deaths of Gilda “Jill” and Bruno D’Amore, ages 73 and 74, and Jill’s 97-year-old mother, Lucia Arpino, who were stabbed and beaten.
Ferguson pleaded not guilty to one count of murder, two counts of assault and battery with a deadly weapon and burglary. He was ordered held without bail. More charges are expected to be added after the autopsies of Bruno and Arpino are completed, Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said.
Missing Colorado woman Suzanne Morphew’s body is apparently located in “a very difficult spot,” prosecutors revealed this week.
Morphew, 49, disappeared during a bike ride on Mother’s Day in 2020 and is now presumed dead.
“She is in a very difficult spot. We actually have more than just a feeling… and the sheriff’s office is continuing to look for Mrs. Morphew’s body,” 11th Judicial Deputy District Attorney Mark Hurlbert said in court Monday, according to the Denver Gazette.

Chris Sununu says he will decide on 2024 Republican presidential bid 'in the next week or two'
New Hampshire Gov. Chris Sununu said Sunday that he believes “there’s a pathway to win” the GOP presidential nomination and will decide “in the next week or two” whether he’ll run in 2024.
“When I start doing something, I’m 120% in,” Sununu said on CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday. “Pretty soon, we’ll make a decision, probably in the next week or two. And we’ll either be go or no-go.”
The remarks come after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C., formally declared their presidential candidacies last week, officially challenging the front-runner, former President Donald Trump.
“The money has been lined up, the support’s been lined up. There’s a pathway to win. All that – those boxes are checked. The family’s on board, which is always a big one. I just got to make sure it’s right for the party and right for me,” Sununu, serving his fourth term as New Hampshire governor, told CNN’s Jake Tapper.
DeSantis, whose long-anticipated announcement was marred by tech problems on Twitter, raised $8.2 million in the 24 hours since entering the race Thursday night, his campaign confirmed. That massive sum far exceeded the amount raised by President Joe Biden over the same period.
DeSantis formally launched his campaign Wednesday night during an online conversation with Twitter owner Elon Musk. But the audio stream crashed repeatedly, making it difficult for most users to hear the announcement in real time.
On Thursday, the Republican governor announced plans for a three-state blitz next week featuring at least a dozen stops. He is scheduled to campaign Tuesday and Wednesday in Iowa before a trip to New Hampshire on Thursday, and South Carolina on Friday.
“We are laser-focused on taking Gov. DeSantis’ forward-thinking message for restoring America to every potential voter in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina,” DeSantis campaign manager Generra Peck said. “Our campaign is committed to putting in the time to win these early nominating states. No one will work harder than Gov. DeSantis to share his vision with the country – he has only begun to fight.”
DeSantis is casting himself as the only legitimate Republican rival to Trump in the GOP’s crowded primary race, The former president currently holds a big lead in early polls along with a firm grip on a significant portion of the GOP’s passionate base. Yet Trump is plagued by his own baggage, which includes multiple legal threats and a fixation on his 2020 election loss.
Sununu has teased a 2024 presidential campaign for months, and has said he will likely decide in the early summer, following the conclusion of New Hampshire’s current legislative session and the signing of the state’s next two-year budget. Sununu supported Trump during the 2016 general election and again as the then-president unsuccessfully ran for re-election in 2020. The governor had a strong working relationship with the Trump White House, including close ties with Vice President Mike Pence.
However, Sununu has long pushed back against Trump’s unproven claims that the 2020 presidential election was “rigged” and “stolen.” He also started stating in early 2021 that the GOP is larger than any one person.
