Joe Burrow is expected to be out for a minimum of three months due to a turf toe injury that requires surgery. This injury occurred during the Bengals' Week 2 game, and the surgery will likely sideline him for a significant portion of the 2025 season. The exact comeback timeline depends on his recovery post-surgery, but the three-month minimum suggests a long-term absence for the quarterback. The Bengals are already managing with backup Jake Browning, who led them to a comeback victory in Burrow's absence.
