Cincinnati Bengals fans reacted to a report coming Sunday that star quarterback Joe Burrow could be placed on injured reserve after re-aggravating his calf injury during the team’s loss to the Baltimore Ravens in Week 2.
The Bengals listed Burrow as questionable to play against the Los Angeles Rams on Monday night. The Bengals signed two quarterbacks to the practice squad in two days this week, including A.J. McCarron, as the Bengals hedged their bets on Burrow’s availability.
But he could be gone for more than Monday night’s game.
The Cincinnati Bengals could place Joe Burrow on IR
According to Jonathan Jones with CBS Sports, Burrow could go on injured reserve before the Bengals contest against the Rams. That would set up Burrow for a comeback against the San Francisco 49ers on Oct. 29th.

Bengals fans react to Burrow/injured reserve news
Bengals fans reacted to Jones’ suggestion that the Bengals are considering placing Burrow on injured reserve. Here are the best takes on Burrow possibly going on injured reserve.
I promise you bro, the Bengals wouldn't let Joe Burrow participate in practice all week if he was going to be put on injured reserve.
Miss this week? sure. But not IR.
Zac Taylor said he looked great yesterday. Do some more research before reporting stuff like this.

Now someone practicing for the past 3 days running around throwing the football and someone taking 1st team snaps does that mean they are expected to be out? No sir that means they are expected to play or at least they are trying to play!

Hi there lets add up some things here. Alright
1. Burrow has been limited in practice the past couple days but they said he was running around and throwing the ball.
2. He is not doubtful on the injury report but questionable for Mondays game.
3. He took 1st team snaps
