Joe Burrow left the Jacksonville Jaguars game, visibly in pain, after being sacked by defensive lineman Arik Armstead early in the second quarter on Sunday.
He was seen holding his ankle before the training staff assisted him. In dangerous scenes for the Bengals fans, Burrow was seen struggling to walk on his own.
Jake Browning replaced Burrow with the Bengals trailing Jacksonville 14-7.
When did Joe Burrow get injured?
The injury occurred on a second-and-20 play when Burrow was sacked by Jaguars defensive lineman Arik Armstead. He stayed on the ground as trainers rushed over, then limped off the field and went into the medical tent before being escorted to the locker room. Burrow had gone 8-of-14 passing for 83 yards and a touchdown.

“Can the #Bengals not afford a medical cart?? They’re making Joe Burrow walk to the lockeroom and he can’t even walk, he’s limping. Poverty franchise ♂️” another fan tweeted.
