Joe Burrow Fantasy

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has more than enough hype as he enters his third year in the NFL. The former LSU Tiger had a spectacular sophomore season. He recovered from the season-ending knee injury that cost him the remainder of his rookie year and also led the Bengals to a Super Bowl appearance. However, while the debate continues regarding who is the most promising up-and-coming signal-caller going, ESPN's Dan Orlovsky recently named Burrow the "best young-gun" in the league, age 25 or younger. Although Justin Herbert may have something to say about that, Burrow certainly has an excellent chance of being one of the most potent fantasy options in any format imaginable, especially with Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and Joe Mixon at his disposal.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (knee), who shed the knee brace he wore on his surgically repaired left knee all last year, is having his first reasonably normal offseason. "I've just been able to focus on the entirety of myself, weight room and conditioning, on field, throwing, mechanics, all of it, not really focusing on the knee," Burrow said. Despite being the most-sacked quarterback in 2021 due to an atrocious offensive line, Burrow led the Bengals to a Super Bowl appearance and will be a midrange QB1 target with what should be an improved O-line in 2022. The 25-year-old had a league-high 70.4% completion percentage in 2021 and threw for 4,611 yards, 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions on 520 attempts during the regular season.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, who suffered a knee injury late in the Super Bowl loss to the Los Angeles Rams, won't need surgery, according to sources. Burrow will have to rehab his knee, but the sprain shouldn't drastically affect his offseason. It's great news for the 25-year-old, who missed most of his rookie season in 2020 due to a serious knee injury. The injury is worth watching, but as long as he doesn't suffer any setbacks, Burrow should be good to go for spring workouts. With plenty of offensive talent around him, Burrow took the next step in 2021, going 366-for-520 (league-high 70.4 completion percentage) for 4,611 yards, 34 touchdowns and 14 interceptions. Cincy's offensive line needs to protect him better, but Burrow will be in the QB1 mix in fantasy heading into 2022.
