Quick Hits | Joe Burrow Practices On A Rainy Day That Matches A Gritty Rivalry

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow returned to practice in rainy conditions ahead of Sunday's divisional game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. After managing back tightness and rib soreness from recent hits, Burrow was not listed on Wednesday's injury report. Bengals head coach Zac Taylor noted Burrow's general soreness before the session, but Burrow confirmed his readiness to play in Pittsburgh, where he holds a 3-1 career record.

Burrow addressed the challenge presented by Steelers defenders T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward, particularly their ability to disrupt plays and tip passes at the line of scrimmage. Meanwhile, the Bengals are managing an offensive absence as wide receiver Andrei Iosivas heads to injured reserve with torn thumb ligaments.
