Watch: Bengals Fans Arrested For Attempted To Assault Joe Burrow During Loss To Commanders (Report)

The Cincinnati Bengals couldn’t have imagined a worse start to their 2024 campaign.  After failing to get a long-term deal done with Ja’Marr Chase or Tee Higgins this off-season, fans were just excited to get the team on the field and watch them compete for a Super Bowl.

Cincinnati’s loss to Washington on Monday Night Football in front of a national audience sent their fan base into full panic mode.  So much so that one fan took things a little too far.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (9) and head coach Zac Taylor head for the locker room after the fourth quarter of the NFL Week 3 game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Washington Commanders at Paycor Stadium in downtown Cincinnati on Monday, Sept. 23, 2024. The Bengals remain winless after a 38-33 loss to Washington.

According to Darrelle Lincoln of Total Pro Sports:

Just when you thought things couldn’t get worse for Joe Burrow and the Cincinnati Bengals, they certainly did after a fan’s actions in the stands.

Monday Night Football was shaping up as one where the Cincinnati Bengals were supposed to secure their first victory of the year.

Jayden Daniels and the Washington Commanders had other plans.

In the midst of the Commanders taking the lead and never giving it up, a fan in the stands decided he was going to take things to the next level by throwing something at Joe Burrow on the sidelines.

To make things even worse, the fan was rocking his jersey.

Here is a video of the interaction:

The Bengals remain winless after a 38-33 loss to Washington.

During Monday night’s game, Burrow completed 29 of 38 passes for 324 yards, three touchdown passes, and no interceptions for a passer rating of 127.5.

Despite his performance, the Cincinnati Bengals dropped to 0-3. While the Bengals have started 0-2 for the third consecutive season, they have avoided a 0-3 start previously.

There are few NFL teams that have survived a 0-3 start to make the playoffs.
