For the first time since his season-ending wrist surgery a year ago, Joe Burrow will play in a cold-weather game. The Cincinnati Bengals quarterback said

Burrow, who underwent season-ending surgery on his right wrist last season, told reporters Wednesday that he's not sure how his wrist will feel with temperatures getting so low. He mentioned that Sunday will mark his first cold-weather game since undergoing the procedure in 2023.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has yet to play in a cold weather game this season and he spoke honestly about the uncertainty he’s facing ahead of Sunday’s game with freezing temperatures expected.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow addresses the media ahead of his team's Week 13 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Kickoff is scheduled for 1 p.m. at Paycor Stadium on CBS (Local12/WKRC-TV).

However, a new concern arises for the Bengals as Burrow claimed he "isn’t sure how his wrist will feel" in cold weather games, according to Kelsey Conway of The Cincinnati Enquirer. Burrow suffered a ligament in his wrist on Nov. 16, 2023, during the Bengals' 34-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Adding muscle while rehabbing his injured wrist and "playing downhill" when facing pressure in the pocket are making a difference.

The primary burden of that falls on star quarterback Joe Burrow, who has played some of the best football of his career this season. Burrow has nearly dragged the Bengals to a handful of wins that they had no business getting this season.
