Bengals' Zac Taylor Defends Joe Mixon After Loss

Nov 27, 2023 1:57 AM

Bengals coach Zac Taylor dismissed the notion that Sunday's 16-10 loss to the Steelers could be pinned on running back Joe Mixon.

Mixon was held to just 16 yards on eight carries. The lack of production came in the team's third straight defeat and first game with quarterback Jake Browning playing in place of the injured Joe Burrow, who is out for the season with a torn ligament in his right wrist.

Taylor defended his veteran running back after he was asked about his confidence level in Mixon.

"This has nothing to do with Joe Mixon," Taylor said. "This is the entirety of the unit coming together.

Bengals Place Joe Burrow On IR; Jake Browning To Start At QB

Nov 25, 2023 3:57 PM

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was officially placed on injured reserve Saturday, the team announced.

Burrow suffered a season-ending right wrist injury in the team's Week 11 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Nov. 16.

On Friday, Bengals coach Zac Taylor said Burrow was going to formally be placed on injured reserve by the end of the weekend and that the quarterback was still "most likely" going to have surgery to repair a torn ligament in his wrist.

Jake Browning, who has been with the team since 2021 and won the backup job heading into this season, will make his first career NFL start. AJ McCarron, who is in his second stint with the club, was promoted from the practice squad to the active roster for Sunday's contest versus Pittsburgh (6-4).

Joe Burrow Leaves Game With Sprained Wrist

Nov 17, 2023 8:44 AM

Joe Burrow left the Cincinnati Bengals' 34-20 loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday night with a sprained right wrist.

Burrow did not finish the game after he exited in the second quarter. 

Zac Taylor said Burrow fell on the wrist earlier in the game before he appeared to be in serious pain after throwing a 4-yard touchdown pass to Joe Mixon, his last play of the game.

Before the game, Burrow was spotted coming off the team plane wearing something on his wrist that resembled protective gear. Burrow had not been listed on the injury report during the week and Taylor said he was not aware of Burrow dealing with any wrist issue.

Bengals Unsure If Ja'Marr Chase Can Play In Week 10

Nov 7, 2023 8:06 AM

Ja'Marr Chase is dealing with back soreness after he suffered a tough hit in Sunday's win over the Buffalo Bills.

Chase finished the game but the Cincinnati Bengals are unsure about his availability for this week's game against the Houston Texans.

"I'm just going to support my teammates, man," Chase said. "Let those guys do what they got to do. Only thing I can do is get healthy for the team and try my best."

Zac Taylor said he's under the belief that Chase suffered the injury in the third quarter of the team's 24-18 win at Paycor Stadium. Chase leaped backwards in the air to catch a deep ball from Joe Burrow, slammed to the turf after he was unable to make the acrobatic catch and was slow to get up.
